This is a picture of someone else’s art. Can my photo of this sculpture also be considered art? I would argue that it can be based on the lighting and exposure I chose.
I took several pictures of this sculpture and most do not have the direct sun. I love the sculpture but I don’t find any of those pictures to be that interesting. They are just snapshots of a statue.
However, when I was done and ready to move on the sun suddenly broke through the trees and shone directly on the statue. That side lighting suddenly transformed an average scene into something that grabs your attention.
The contrast in the lighting gives the image a dreamy quality I like.
