The Grande Disco
While visiting the city of Charlotte, my goal was to walk around and find unique art and sculptures all over the city. This is an urban sculpture made out of bronze from 1974. While trying many different angles, I found that the best way to photograph it with a 35mm lens was straight on. I rarely do straight on shots but this is was a dynamic sculpture and the features of it were most interesting face on. This was taken with my Sony A7r with a Voigtlander 35mm f/1.2 lens. On this shot I used the in-camera rich b&w preset and then in Lightroom adjusted the tones, contrast and exposure and added extra vignetting for more drama.
