My main objective here was to form some eye-catching lines through ordinary objects. Lines can be useful in helping the viewer work his way (or her way, for those feminists out there who like gender neutrality) through the image. So they help add a powerful dynamic to a photo. In this image, there are two main layers of interest: the straight vertical lines, and the diagonal lines formed by the intersecting circles. Also, the distinct contrast of the dirt and the black and white effect just make it look, so, damn, cool. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go find some beer to wash the taste of nerd out of my mouth.
