Studying rhythm in composition!
Recently I have started taking interest in the theory of photography in order to improve my photography skills. I am focussing on learning different concepts and am following Brenda’s posts on “photo studies”. Brenda has explained “rhythm” with variety of photos including repetitive and non repetitive components in a photo and even included Ted’s video on rhythm in visual composition.
In this post I am presenting my understanding of rhythm ( just like rhythm in music). To start with there are photos with repeated patterns found in nature and in man made designs.
The rhythm in these photos is related to a specific pattern. Next I want to see photos without repetition. In such cases by using a rhythmic element we present the mood or the flow. We feel the movement when we see waves or flowing water or a picture of a road gives us a sense of rhythm.
I would love to hear your comments. Please share your knowledge of rhythm.
Next challenge would be to find rhythm in a minimal setting. But one thing at a time.
Abstract photography : An experiment
Abstraction or Non representational imagery in photography is one of the most difficult concepts. After going through Brenda’s post “a photo study: abstract photography” and watching Ted Forbes’ video again and again. I tried abstraction myself.
Please help me improving my skills.

Charles Bridge Prague: Get set click
My first entry for this week’s Photo Challenge
Whole day this place is full of tourists and locals. Sometimes rather overcrowded.
Also this is one the favourite spots among photographers in Prague. Easy to find professional and non-professionals during dawn and dusk. You find people waiting with/without tripods to capture that perfect moment.
The Charles Bridge is a historic bridge that crosses the Vltava river in Prague, Czech Republic. Its construction started in 1357 under the auspices of King Charles IV, and finished in the beginning of the 15th century. The bridge replaced the old Judith Bridge built 1158–1172 that had been badly damaged by a flood in 1342. This new bridge was originally called the Stone Bridge or the Prague Bridge but has been the “Charles Bridge” since 1870. As the only means of crossing the river Vltava (Moldau) until 1841, the Charles Bridge was the most important connection between Prague Castle and the city’s Old Town and adjacent areas. This “solid-land” connection made Prague important as a trade route between Eastern and Western Europe.
The bridge is 621 metres (2,037 ft) long and nearly 10 metres (33 ft) wide, following the example of the Stone Bridge in Regensburg, it was built as a bow bridge with 16 arches shielded by ice guards. It is protected by three bridge towers, two of them on the Lesser Quarter side and the third one on the Old Town side. The bridge is decorated by a continuous alley of 30 statues and statuaries, most of them baroque-style, originally erected around 1700 but now all replaced by replicas.
