Vanishing point!

Lazy walk

This picture is from Manchester airport. I took this during a trip where the main objective was to make a interview with one of the most famous norwegians Ole Gunnar Solskjær.

But I also brought my own Canon EOS 50D, and captured this inbetween editing storys for the TV2 sports that afternoon.

Vanishing point is a classic scene in photograhpy. A vanishing point is a point in a perspective drawing to which parallel lines of objects appear to converge. The number and placement of the vanishing points determines which perspective technique is being used. The concept was first used by Renaissance artists such as Donatello and Masaccio.

I was in Switzerland at the moment, working during the WC in Mendrisio. We stayed in Lugano, and on the last day we got the opportunity to visit the little mountain village Brè. Situated in the mountains close to the city of Lugano. The painting is found on the wall of the local church.
