Description
This headlight was photographed in the small German town of Schierstein near Wiesbaden, Germany.
One of my great discoveries in a period when I was suffering from severe visual difficulties was the amazing variety and beauty of headlights. Some are truly sculptural works of art. I don't know anything about cars, don't own one and don't drive, but availability of the subject matter was just a matter of walking down the sidewalks where hundreds of cars are parked every day.
I approach the task of creating an abstract as a matter of framing and composition of the elements of shapes, textures, reflections, colors and shadows. Every headlight was unique not only in design, but in environment. Two cars, even of the same make and model and color, parked one behind the other would have different and unique clusters of shapes and reflections.

Very nicely abstracted, Sarah, and I like the subtlety of the muted palette. This is one of my two pod's in the Best of Minimalism in Photography group for May 5.
