For this photo, I got very low to the ground, and filled the frame with the rustic, brown color of a drain cover and its surrounding concrete. I played with the angles of the shadows made by the grid of the metal grate and the framing of the grate by the seams of the concrete blocks. With not much else to look at, the viewer is forced to focus on the drain cover, which would otherwise go unnoticed. It may be dirty and ordinary, but in this moment, its accidental geometry caught my attention and struck me as something worth sharing.
