Straight photography, the movement led by Paul Strand, is what inspired my pictures.  Strand liked to make pictures interesting not by editing them, but by taking completely ordinary objects and using irregular angles to make it more dynamic.  He made a viewer look twice at a picture just because it wasn't a normal way of looking at that object.  That's what I tried to do here with the bike and the harp; to make things that aren't that uncommon seem interesting.
