Ketchup
OK so I was bored! Still, I like the impact of this
picture, the colours are bold and work well together
and the cropping shows just how little information
you need to see exactly what it is and which brand
of ketchup.
Part of the attraction of this shot is the diagonal
composition. Diagonals will add a bit of excitement
to any subject, so when added to one as colourful
and gooey as this, you are bound to get a reaction.
Some people will hate this picture, some will love
it, but most people will be provoked into having a
strong opinion one way or the other. The worst thing
is to be ignored, better that you create a negative
reaction than no reaction at all.
I did a whole series of these pictures, I call it
my 'ketchup period', it was a lot of fun, except of
course for the cleaning up afterwards.
