Blog Post #6...

This picture is taken in Kingswindford, England in 1931.  The title is "Crooked Inn."  I am a fan of photography, especially black and white.  I love the contrast between the man's black suit and the white light pouring in through the open door.  Also the way that the door frames are shifted to the left side and line up, it causes your eye to go directly to the man in the doorway.  When working with photography, it is a rule that your subject should not be directly centered in the middle of the photograph, but in this case it works wonders.  If this photo was off-centered you would not have the full effect of the tilt of the building.  In short, amazing photograph, and amazing quality from film back in 1931!
