Perspective

Shadows

Since I travel so much my roommate and I really don’t see each other very often. So, when an opportunity presents itself we sit down and talk or head out for a bite to eat. This past Sunday we were each stretched out on our couches and catching up on the latest news. I thought the couch was pretty comfy, so after Paul got up and wandered off I stayed for a bit longer. All of a sudden I happened to notice the shadows streaming across the floor, creating these awesome patterns. Not being one to waste shadows and light I grabbed the camera and laid down on the floor below the window and took a few shots. I immediately knew I was going to like the lower perspective. But, as any photographer knows a different perspective can change the feel of the image. Yes, I had an idea! I called Paul back to the couch, asked him to help me out and took the second image. Paul is used to this sort of behavior from me. Both images are okay and each has it’s own story to tell. It’s all perspective.

Shadows and Paul

Wonder how many couches are used for a few winks before watching football?

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.
