There's that "seeing/hearing music" thing I find in your work, again.
This even looks (to me) like an orchestral score. Strings hold a rich continuous note in the background, woodwinds float lightly on top, while brass punctuates on occasion; there's even a "bass note" in the rocks, leading to the next movement.
Someone recently pointed me to Bill Smith's "Designing a Photograph", 1st edition 1985 (the 2nd is different). In his language, some elements I can identify in this image are:
* Similarity of shape -- rectangles horizontal and vertical, with an accent of square
* Similarity of color -- orange and blue
* Similar size -- grouping the bricks, bars, lower right blocks, and central holes
* Continuation -- the bricks and bars form a line that moves across the frame
* Symmetry -- created by the similar shape, color, and texture in the center, left, and right side of the frame
Too, I see a wonderful balance between the quarters left and right; also above and below the center line. The foreground grass and flowers add a delightful delicacy in contrast to the heavier elements behind.
That all sounds so dry; but because I enjoy the image it's also fun to take the time to look at it that carefully.
