Mark Kriedemann, Purple Sky at Sunset (ENTRIES CLOSED - October theme: Lines)

Captured near sunset following a storm on the Gold Coast, this image uses the strong converging lines of the Sundale Bridge to draw the viewer’s eye towards the distant Surfers Paradise skyline. The dramatic storm clouds and soft pink and purple hues of the fading light contrast with the more rugged and greyed tones of the bridge. Using a 24-70, I shot reasonably wide to use the wide-angle distortion to emphasise how the lines of the bridge almost seem to dive into the distance.
