Lens Artists Photo Challenge – Cinematic

thanks to Sofia for hosting this week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge https://photographias.wordpress.com/2025/04/26/lens-artists-challenge-346-cinematic/

Sofia explains that to capture a cinematic effect the photo may have: camera angles, bold and high-contrast colours, light, locations, just to name a few. The main objective is to take a shot that is part of a story, there’s mood and a sense of location; our image is but a snapshot of a much wider situation.

Not sure if I’ve met the brief but here is my interpretation of ‘cinematic’.
