I’m planning to enter a local photography competition where the concept is Intersections. I’m looking for something other than the obvious: a person at a crossroads, aerial shot of a freeway interchange, street signs. I’m thinking of an elderly person holding a new infant. Any other ideas anyone wants to share?

    Are you going to share the prize money with us, since we will be providing the ideas?

    Does it have to be a single shot? I feel like there is a lot to be found there using focus stacking, matching scale and putting an emphasis on the contrasts you can find around the city, like a small patch of moss on top of a wall taking half the frame and a busy part of the city the other. A broken glass bottle taking half the frame and a hypermodern building the other. Finding places where many different or even opposite things meet - large and small, nature and urban, broken/forgotten and new/imposing, fast and slow, and then bringing them together in a way that removes the conceptual border between them - i.e. creating a point of intersection where it’s not obvious that there is one to be found.
