I can’t stop staring at this image. Dennis Turbeville does indeed “get wide” and constructs an exceptionally geometric scene. The lines within the frame create a tension which warps the picture plane, confusing the photograph’s dimensionality.

I had an  interesting dilemma: I saw these two images and struggled to decide which one to pick. However, they are both by the same photographer, Shamila Chaudhary, and I decided to feature the images together. I am fascinated by her graphic sensibility, coupled with compelling uses of light and shadow. Chaudhary has a unique, instinctual eye and I hope to see more of her talent in our Flickr pool.

Don’t forget to submit your best D.C. images into our 10th annual photo contest – you only have three weeks left!
