“Proportions,” 2007, NJ vs. NY
I enjoy weird photographs that play with your eye and mind. This image, shot from a park in Hoboken, New Jersey, is one of those photographs. The awkwardly similar proportions of the Lamp to the Empire State building to the telephone pole to the tree distort the viewers sense of depth and scale. The fact that the building on the left does not extend past the tree and can mostly be seen through the eye of the tree, adds to this awkwardness.
