Photographing Populus was an exploration of rhythm, repetition, and the dynamic interplay of light and shadow. This facade study focused on isolating details while maintaining a sense of scale, capturing how the organic openings shift with perspective and changing light. This frame was an exercise in composition and timing—aligning angles, contrast, and depth to highlight the facade’s unique pattern. In the end, the images reveal the personality of Populus, where design and nature merge in a seamless, ever-changing dialogue.
