Not Quite Symmetrical 2

CC16 │ GF1 + Lumix 7-14mm F4.0 │ 7mm F4.0 1/2s ISO100Although a photo can feature a symmetrical composition, seldom will you find a situation where both sides are identical. Even man made objects that are designed and manufactured to be symmetrical will have slight differences from side to side, even if it's just how the light hits it.

On a side note, the top photo is one of the entrances to the Marymount Station on Singapore's new Circle Line. It illustrates an increasing attention to design that goes beyond the predominantly practical considerations which drove early station designs.

Both photographs are absolutely interesting in terms of similarity and symmetry. I see the architectural eye of the photographer.

I sent you an email by the way about 24 September. Did you already read it?

Hi Wouter, nice to hear from you as usual. As you have probably noticed by my recent posts, Lindsey and I are travelling in Iceland at the moment. I can't access my email at the moment, but I'll get back to you after the 4th when I return to Amsterdam.
