Geometry within geometry
Geometry is by derivation measured earth (geo-earth and metry-measure). In a photograph one is isolating a part of the earth in two dimensions which we call the frame. This isolation in two dimensions is a measurement of the earth, a selective measurement made by the photographer. But when we talk about geometry and photography often we are talking about something different altogether. We are talking about the geometric forms that are within this frame: geometry within geometry. These forms are made up of various shapes, lines, squares, cubes, both two dimensional and three dimensional and even fractals those multi-dimensional and repeating chaotic forms seen throughout nature.
