I focussed on taking the photos in a specific way and from the same angle. I found that the sky became a reoccurring element in my photos, all of which contributed to the development of a consistent theme.
In doing so, I started looking for elements of design with blues and that is how my theme came to be. This project made me realize that design/ design elements are everywhere and in everything.
