Here I am again trying to imitate Andre Kertesz’s great photograph “The Fork or La Fourchette,1928,” with my IPhone. It is the view that there is beauty in simplicity and utility, that there is glory to be found in the specular reflections off stainless steel, the play of its shadows, and the purity of a white background. For me it is this stainless steel double basket illuminated at an angle that produces odd shadows that intersect and seem at odds with the lines of the basket.
