Dog on the Tyne

Photo Information

You get a good view of Gateshead Millenium Bridge from the viewing gallery at the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art. Often the view is better than the contemporary art. I used my usual street photography method here: find a backdrop and wait for the actors to walk on stage.

I like the unusual viewpoint and the composition, with the bridge lying corner to corner.

I also like the way you have waited for the subjects to pass the cable from the top left, which draws the viewers eye to them.

Good work David!

p.s. also enjoyed the play on words in the title.
