It is too early for the bumper-to-bumper traffic to converge on Santa Fe’s central plaza only a few feet from this intersection. The street is empty, save for a sole figure walking below one of the historic buildings that surround the plaza. The point of the image is the scale incongruity of the very small figure surrounded by an empty street and dwarfed by the building. I insert a foreground layer of overhead leaves to frame the image and point directly down at the man from the sky. Still another foreground layer is the crosswalk, leading the eye directly to the man as well. The leaves are closer to us than anything else in the image, and appear larger than the man in the distance, an optical illusion that makes the man seem much smaller than he really is. The man, the focal point of the image, is the middle, or subject, layer of this image. The fourth layer, the building, provides the background. The wideangle lens embraces all four layers and creates the appearance of depth to give this image its sense of dimensionality.
