I love the simplicity of this photo. On the surface we see a lovely set-up of champagne glasses for a toast at my friends’ wedding. But, let’s look a little deeper. Although, it may look simple, in reality, it’s very complex. The frame is filled with geometric shapes – circles (tops of the glasses, tops of the champagne, bottoms of the stems) and triangles (slices of strawberries). There’s nice perspective with lines going off into the distance (well, the near distance). Now, let’s talk about color. It’s monochromatic with bright red accents. Doesn’t that red just pop out? There were many angles I could have taken, but I chose to fill the frame with the glasses to create this simple/complex photo. How could I resist?
