Posted by Alfredo J. Martiz J. (Panama City, Panama) on 11 September 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual.

When I was making this photo, people started to ask me why I was taking photos of the chairs they were placing in the storage room.
I found this shape quite interesting, the amazing thing is that it was only possible to see while they were stacking them up, the collectivity or gathering of chairs... only then this pattern was revealed and I was lucky enough to see it, probably the designer of those chairs made this as a secret to be discovered by someone. I just loved it, simply beautiful to my eyes, I hope you like it!

Nunca pensé que fuesen sillas, me da la impresión de cañas de bamboo. Ilusión óptica? Besos, Mama

@DORIS: Muchas gracias Mom, =)

Like your mother, I never guessed they were chairs till I read your description. It's great to be able to see an abstract pattern among concrete objects.

Daroru from Amagasaki, Japan

I didn't know they were chairs either. Intriguing lack of scale - If you'd told me it was an architectural detail I would believe it!

@Daroru: Thank you Daroru, I got so happy when I saw that, if I remember I didn't had the camera with me in that room, I had to go downstairs to pick up my camera and then went back to make the photo, =)

Isn't it amazing how most people would walk past this and not notice the amazing lines/shape this has taken on. People walk past beauty everywhere, their lives are so busy they don't notice all the details around them. I love the lighting!

@Dawn Sutherland: Thank you very much Dawn, I hope to continue looking at the beauty of details around us and not turn into a person missing the interesting things because of tight schedules!

I like photos like this. I love pattern shots. I think its fun when people ask you what you are doing because most of the time they don't understand the excitement.

@Yvon: Thank you very much Yvon, it is fun when they ask and when they see you excited when taking photos, wonderful, after that you can have a nice conversation for a while, it has happened many times, =)
