When I feel bad about something – like the woes of having a large belly button – I often think about Demodex folliculorum, a type of mite that lives on our foreheads. At night, it has sex on our faces. The microscopic beasts don’t have an anus, so when they fill up to capacity, they explode. Your face is a literal shitstorm. Somehow that puts whatever issue I’m having back into perspective.

From My Perspective - The Golden Hour was rapidly fading but this view called me. Dilworthtown Road, rural Glen Mills, PA.

The oldest of the three United States Library of Congress buildings, the Thomas Jefferson Building was built between 1890 and 1897. It was originally known as the Library of Congress Building and is located on First Street SE, between Independence Avenue and East Capitol Street in Washington, D.C. The Beaux-Arts style building is known for its classicizing facade and elaborately decorated interior. Its design and construction has a tortuous history; the building's main architect was Paul J. Pelz, initially in partnership with John L. Smithmeyer, and succeeded by Edward Pearce Casey during the last few years of construction.

"Finding my own path where the sand meets the sky. Sometimes, a change in perspective is all you need to see the world in a different light. "

Second Life is a place where you can be anything or anyone you want. Sometimes I like being an ant wandering about looking up at the bottoms of chairs. It's an interesting viewpoint: that of being an ant! But I think maybe I'll be a Bokononist ant tomorrow.

 

On man's destiny, from the Books of Bokonon: "Today I will be a Bulgarian Minister of Education! Tomorrow I will be Helen of Troy!" (Cat's Cradle).

 

per·spec·tive (pər-spěk'tĭv) n.

 

1. A view or vista.

2. A mental view or outlook: "It is useful occasionally to look at the past to gain a perspective on the present" (Fabian Linden).

3. The relationship of aspects of a subject to each other and to a whole: a perspective of history; a need to view the problem in the proper perspective.

4. Subjective evaluation of relative significance; a point of view: the perspective of the displaced homemaker.

5. The ability to perceive things in their actual interrelations or comparative importance: tried to keep my perspective throughout the crisis.

I love the connotations of this word. Apart from it's photographic sense, it's always good to take some time out for yourself and get a little perspective.

The Surrey City Centre Library in the revitalised Surrey core provides many interesting prepectives in Architecture. From the angle of this shot, the building looks to me like the bow of a large ship. What comes to your mind?
