This is an amazing photograph by C. Maufsaise of the gallery around the Court of the Lions in the Alhambra in Granada, Spain. Think about Maufsaise setting up their camera to capture this image. The light, the shadows, the architecture, all framed in this small rectangle. It makes you think about what they might have been thinking when they made it. Were they also drawn to the light? Did they think about how the light fell on the surfaces, highlighting details in the columns and arches? I love the repetition of the columns that lead your eye further into the photograph. It’s like Maufsaise is saying, “Hey, come on in. Have a wander.” It's about leading you to the heart of the image. We are all in an ongoing conversation. I hope this photograph inspires your creativity, like it has mine.
