My subject is a salesman, waiting on a street of shops in a Marrakesh souk. He sits next to a row of closed doors. To tie the man to the doors, I abstract both. I shoot the man in backlight so he becomes a silhouette. I bring the camera as close to the building as I can and use a 300mm telephoto focal length to collapse the line of doors into a rhythmically repeating row of vertical patterns. The eye moves through the rhythmic doors and the building wall until it reaches the man. The overall geometry of the image plays a series of vertical thrusts on the left against a vertically shaded building wall, silhouetted man, and a horizontally divided two color wall in the background at far right. The effect is coherent, compact, and expressive.
