Silos through windscreen

Max Dupain has taken this photograph of an industrial scene through the windscreen of a car.

  • Look at the photograph and work out what is inside the car and what is outside the car. How could you tell?
  • Observe how the shadows create patterns.
  • Draw a view of a factory or a city through this windscreen and add what is behind the car in the rear-vision mirror. Add strong shadows to your drawing. Hint: if you’d like to print the image only, right-click on it and select save, then print it.
