  1. The photo was captured from the demonstration of the artist at the Loafing Shed Glass Studio which I visited in the Langley Art Studio Tour last Sunday. Through my Cannon Eos Xti digital camera and Sigma 18-125mm lens, I placed the artist’s right hand and the blown glass to occupy almost two thirds of the horizontal space to emphasize the center of interest by the principle of thirds. The second interest point is the very bright circle at the right up corner. Due to the contrast dark to bright, the circle may lead the viewer’s eyes from the hand and the blown glass move to the glory hole. The movement of the diagonal line appears a kind of dynamic symmetry. In the studio, the artist attempt to “create objects that reflect the beauty of this amazing substance”. I also attempt to capture the amazing creativity of the artist. (150words)
