  • The sterile plasticity of this scene, everything from edge to edge - right, left top, bottom, is spot on. It was also the right time of day, flattening light spectrums into a manageable opportunity. I was also pleased that the photographer had the vision and skills to create a somewhat absurd and surreal image, featuring the funny things that people do to organize their world.
