21 Clever Uses of Geometric Patterns in Photography

Share:  

When I started to put this article together I knew two things were going to dominate the subject matter.  Architecture and lighting / shadows.  Properly photographed architecture is an art unto itself, doing so that showcases the unique aspects of a building, or portions of a building really takes your breath away.  Same thing can be said about light and how shadows have a direct impact on it.  Framing these photos it's hard to say if the photographers goal was to showcase geometric patterns as the primary focal point, but they sure did a great job of it.

Intriguing images and patterns- you have a beautiful site. I plan to feature this site on my 2nd Five Photos Project, coming in June.

Great post, I’ve always loved different photographs that include geometric pattens or shapes to create visual interest. Its funny how often we all miss these types of patterns in day to day life until we have a camera in hand.

I gave a shout out to 11 photographers who used geometric patterns and shapes to create cool photos on this blog post:
