I only gain perspective by what I've experienced, learned from others of whom I know and what I have been told. Otherwise my perspective and vision is not swayed by what anyone says. The problem for me is what I see when I look through the window. Having the perspective of things that I do, what I know and have been told... it's not always very pretty. Not at all. Oh how wrong people can be with what the believe and how they have it. My picture and perspective is much clearer.

I shot this image in St.Brigid's Well, Kildare....I find the peaceful solitude inspirational, as I'm sure most of the visitors there do. When I looked up, I noticed the bird feeder in amongst the trees and something about the scene struck a chord with me.

Perspective makes a big different in photography. Image taken during the OMD Goes to Party Event. Follow me on Facebook: facebook.com/johnragaiphotos
You can see here a 2D-image of the Sun, released by NASA images released HERE. The blue color is a false color, it simply represents the Sun seen at a given temperature or wavelength, in this case 1 million degrees C (or 171 Å). Each temperature allows scientists to focus on different features of the sun.
Such images are taken by the NASA's twin STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) satellites, launched on October 25th 2006 on board a Delta Rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in FL - see photo of launch), to study the Sun and its influence on our planet.
STEREO will provide a unique and revolutionary view of the Sun-Earth System. The two nearly identical observatories - one ahead of Earth in its orbit, the other trailing behind - will trace the flow of energy and matter from the Sun to Earth. They will reveal the 3D structure of coronal mass ejections; violent eruptions of matter from the sun that can disrupt satellites and power grids, and help us understand why they happen. STEREO will become a key addition to the fleet of space weather detection satellites by providing more accurate alerts for the arrival time of Earth-directed solar ejections with its unique side-viewing perspective.
For the first time, scientists will be able to see structures in the sun's atmosphere in three dimensions. The new view will greatly aid scientists' ability to understand solar physics and there by improve space weather forecasting. The web link given above contains 3-D anaglyph video and images.
I am one of the scientists at UC Berkeley involved in the analysis of data from the STEREO spacecraft. I am not part of the SECHI team, but from the WAVES team. I just thought i'd share the exciting news and let everyone on Flickr know about these fantastic views of the Sun.

After focusing on money/finances in yesterday's shot, tonight I decided to go with something with a little bit more heart in it.
In an effort to try to shake things up a bit and fight my recent creative slump, I decided to change the camera's perspective. To do this, I put the camera on the tripod on top of a cabinet about 13 or 14 feet high so the camera was looking down on me.
With the camera in this position, I wanted to go for "moody" lighting, so I setup a single flash with a tight grid spot to my right to focus the light entirely on my face and upper body and to control spill. I took this with the lights on, but at a shutter speed of 1/250 sec and a tighter aperture, only the light from the flash made its way into the shot. Here's the setup shot: www.flickr.com/photos/lighthack/4602451478/

Durch Klang bewegtes Wasser
“Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.”
(Douglas Adams - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy")
This cracked me up - mostly because it is so damn true.. And because I had just read what Carl Sagan had said about the idiocy of mankind's battles over tiny pieces of real estate on this insignificant little pebble that we inhabit..
He really put it into perspective, but it's kind lengthy for an insignificant posting by an indistinguished decendent of apes who still thinks it's pretty cool to take pictures of lizards soaking up the sun on a broad leaf...
Just a closer version of the same scene. This time I used a 28-135mm lens. The last shot was a 10-22mm, thus the different perspective.
The scene is the Fore River Power Station on the Fore River in Quincy, Massachusetts.
