I try to express here the immense size, power and architectural grandeur of a lobby in the new convention center in downtown Phoenix. I use a 28mm wideangle lens to spread the scene, and tilt the camera both upwards and to the side in order to force the windowed walls to soar towards the deeply shadowed ceiling. I bind the walls together with repeating diagonal shadows that lay a pattern upon the green stone facing of the monumental gateway over the lobby’s entrance. Geometry, color, and rhythmic pattern join to express the lobby’s overwhelming scale.
