Shooting structures like these can provide a sense of order, I personally like to let geometry dominate the frame whenever possible and think ahead on how best to use the contrast created between wide solid structures, skinny metal beams, and the spaces where there will be no bouncing light. Taking all these things into perspective will support the visual characteristics of a black-and-white composition.

Take advantage of our brain’s natural need to organize patterns and place things in order, while keeping that in mind, remember that leading lines are powerful compositional tools that can guide the viewer’s eye through an image. Guide your audience, but also make them wonder, and experiment with your environment.

Don’t worry about overexposing or underexposing, screw perfect exposure, with film, you have to be intentional, go for it, and push the film to do what it does best, a moody and dramatic feel.
