This month’s theme is urban. I live in the Midwest in a community of a few cities which are surrounded ultimately by miles and miles of farms. We don’t necessarily have what I would call a big city feeling to our communities, but urban ultimately means “of or relating to city”. So I guess it doesn’t matter the size of the city.
My first picture is of my boy on the sky bridge here in the Quad Cities. For those of you not familiar with the Quad Cities, the sky bridge is one of our iconic landmarks.
My second image is a double exposure of my son and part of the Davenport skyline (mainly the skybridge).
My third and fourth images are of my girl during a session we did downtown. She wanted more of an urban feel for her pictures.
I had to include a picture I recently took while we were downtown Chicago. Most people will recognize this iconic location.
And last, and quite possibly least, LOL, is an image that I think accurately depicts urban areas, or at least our urban area here in the QC. You wouldn’t be in the urban areas without being surrounded by construction. I thought I’d end with a bit of humor. This is obviously not a very artistic image, but it depicts our urban area we live in.
Continue though our blog circle by heading over to Janet’s blog to see her amazing images!! You won’t be disappointed!
A great collection for this month’s theme, Katherine! I love the ones of your daughter. Really beautiful!
Beautiful portraits. I love the use of reflection. Great job. ??
Wow Katherine, the double exposure is stunning. I love it. I also love the monochrome and leading lines of the sky bridge. Beautiful shot. I’m glad you were able to get out with Your daughter and do the urban shots. They are both beautiful. Most of all I am grateful that you were able to take images with a hurt thumb. I hope it feels better soon.
I love the variety of urban images you have captured here Katherine, really gives a nice sense of the area. The double exposure is awesome!
Absolutely wonderful – fantastic images! ?
What a cool collection! I love the ones of the urban portraits – that ivy wall and the framing and lines on the stairs are awesome!
