We went to the art museum yesterday and I checked out the new exhibit: "Light Years: Conceptual Art and the Photograph, 1964–1977." Fascinating. Interesting. A lot I liked, a lot I didn't. What impressed me the most was presentation; unique matting and framing ... ideas for shooting a series of images ... it was thought provoking and inspirational. I really liked the Boot Project!! 100 Boots, 1971-73. So where will I get 100 boots to do this? :-)
As we were walking around, we saw a painting we really liked from the renaissance period (forgot the artist) but the painting was breathtaking in how exquisitely the artist depicted 'atmospheric perspective.' So we launched into a long discussion on the topic.
I highly recommend taking along an art student the next time you go to an art museum! I love her perspective, her insights and how she encourages me to look at something I've seen many times in a whole different light.

I took this wide angle perspective to emphasize the fluted column converging lines.
A third shot of Romsey Abbey with the chairs out (for recording a CD). Always worth trying an off-axis view, often enhances the grandeur and perspective of a big building, as here I think.
When shooting a distant object in telephoto, the perceived distance between objects in the frame compresses.
This is a dramatic example, with the San Francisco Bay bridge and boat on the left and the Stanford Dish on the right. These structures are actually 30 miles apart (and I am 4 miles away from the Dish). The San Mateo bridge is in the middle.
The photo is not particularly sharp as I am shooting though a lot of Silicon Valley atmosphere at dusk. (2300mm zoom lens, f18)
The U.S. Bank Tower (center), formerly Library Tower and First Interstate Bank World Center, is a 1,018-foot skyscraper at 633 West Fifth Street in downtown Los Angeles, California. It is the tallest building in California, the eleventh tallest in the United States, the tallest west of the Mississippi River, and the 65th tallest building in the world. Because local building codes require all high-rise buildings to have a helipad, it was known as the tallest building in the world with a roof-top heliport from its completion in 1989 to 2004 when Taipei 101 opened. It is also the second tallest building in a major active seismic region; its structure was designed to resist an earthquake of 8.3 on the Richter scale. It consists of 73 stories above ground and two parking levels below ground. Construction began in 1987 with completion in 1989. The building was designed by Henry N. Cobb of the architectural firm Pei Cobb Freed & Partners and cost $350 million to build. It is one of the most recognizable buildings in Los Angeles, often used in establishing shots for the city in films and television programs.

...life is all about your perspective of it. To quote the Merriam-Webster's first definition of the word:
"a mental view or prospect"
i.e. *perception* is REALITY; meaning one's perspective shapes/influences their understanding of existence.

Shot taken of sunset at Margate harbour using my 70-200mm lens. These two people are adults and one is closer than the other to me, but the compression from the telephoto lens changes the perspective. :)
Perspective - the art of representing three-dimensional objects on a two-dimensional surface so as to give the right impression of their height, width, depth, and position in relation to each other.

Sorry for the delay!
Last week I had three exams and I didn't have time to take any shot. And I was too tired on the weekend, hahaha!
I know that this is not what you expect from the theme "perspective", but the literal interpretation was very boring for me. :-D And I remembered the scene from "Ratatouille" where the critic ask for "some perspective".

Thanks to my dad who helped me (yes, again, hahaha) with the photoshop edition. <3
Hope you like it!
Rear view of man looking down a narrow street. A photographer friend of mine Bernard Walsh used this perspective quite a bit, I liked it and told him I would use it. And so I did.

Reality is a question of perspective; the further you get from the past, the more concrete and plausible it seems—but as you approach the present, it inevitably seems incredible.

For the theme "perspective" for Me Again Monday.
I received this book from my daughter Charissa, it's written by Kim Meeder, the founder of Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch, the ranch where Charissa spent the last eight months. It's a book about true and lasting beauty.
Beauty…something I think many of us women struggle with. What is true beauty? The world, through media would have us believe that beauty is only skin deep. The images of women with perfect skin and perfect bodies is flaunted wherever you go…you can't get away from it. And so as women it's impressed upon us that we must look good, that somehow we have to measure up to what we see in the magazines, TV or movie theatre. All around us we are given the message that less is more in what we wear. That true happiness in who we are comes from our appearance and how beautiful we can look and the attention that we are given because of it.
The back cover of Kim's book reads:
" True beauty is not about how you look but how you live. Women are constantly bombarded with the lie that how we look is far more important than who we are. It's time for a clarion call back to the truth.
Real beauty isn't a look, it's an action. It can be found by making one crucial, life-defining choice; to lay down personal ambitions and selfish desires, pick up your sword of encouragement, and fight for those who are losing their battle for hope. As you do, fierce beauty is revealed - along with lasting value, fulfillment, and joy.
Ultimately, life comes down to one question: Will you serve yourself or your King?"
I have to admit that as a woman I can struggle with this whole beauty thing, thinking I can never measure up to what's out there, to what the world deems as beautiful. Yet my heart is to be beautiful from the inside and not so focused on the outside. At the end of time the only difference I can make in the world is how I treat others, any outward, physical beauty is fleeting…we all get older but our character and actions, they can make a lasting impact on others.
From the world's point of view this is a whole different perspective on beauty…true and lasting beauty…the beauty that makes a difference in the lives of our marriages, our families, our friendships, our communities and ultimately our world.
"Beauty... when you look into a woman's eyes and see what is in her heart." ~Nate Dircks
