Scaffolding

I found this scaffolding at one of the buildings in Singapore and was attracted by the strong lines and pattern of the setting. I pre-visualized the effect that I could achieve once the light background is treated with my favorite colour derivation technique. One of my photography students volunteered to climb up the scaffolding to complete my perceived image of a man at work. The added bias relief treatment obviously boosted the visual impact of the image. This slide won the H. Morrison Medal of the 1984 Northern Counties International Salon, UK. It was an honour for me to be invited as a judge of the same salon in 1996.
