One of my impromptu compositions! Just looked upwards and clicked....not much did I think on this one...!
Week 5 - extreme perspective photography task.
Middlesex University: Product Design and Engineering first year undergraduates...
Day 4.
Perspective.
‘Changing your perspective changes your experience.’
Today’s image is of a dandelion gone to seed.
Personally I like this maligned flower, the flower that has been branded a weed, the flower my wife will spend countless hours attempting to eradicate from our lawn and gardens, the flower that turns to seed in order to infect all surrounding areas, the flower that is the scourge of every sports field, yes the flower hated almost as much as the fictitious triffids.
But...
The dandelion is also the flower touted with amazing health benefits, the flower that carries childhood wishes when the seeds are blown into flight, the flower that can be turned into a crown/necklace on a lazy summer day, the flower of summer dreams.
When it comes down to it, it’s all about perspective.
The new suburban trains here consist of several flexibly joined cars, and you can walk through half the train. That of course gives a fantastic perspective when you look along the aisle. Today I had the luck of standing at one end and not too many passengers, so I couldn't resist taking a snapshot.
Die neuen S-Bahnen im RMV bestehen aus Waggons, die mit flexiblen Bälgen verbunden sind, so dass man innen durch den halben Zug laufen kann und die Nahtstellen fast nicht bemerkt. Die Symmetie und der Fluchtpunkteffekt reizen mich daran schon seit einiger Zeit, und heute habe ich endlich einen brauchbaren Schnappschuss machen können.
Friends of Perspectives including, parents, teachers, students, alumni, business and community leaders, celebrated student research and presentations about A Disciplined Life at the third annual “A Disciplined Life Expo” (Expo) on Thursday, October 17, 2013, at Perspectives Rodney D. Joslin Campus, 1930 S. Archer Avenue, between 5:00 to 8:00 p.m.
Approximately 50 students from Perspectives presented at the Expo communicating what it means to live A Disciplined Life (ADL). Guests learned first-hand about the 26 principles of ADL—which provide a common language for students, parents, teachers and staff at Perspectives. The A Disciplined Life Education Model combines academic rigor with a focus on character education that helps students develop positive self-perception, healthy relationships, and the tools for productivity. It is a curriculum, a conversation, and a set of practices that shape a culture of excellence. Learn more at www.pcsedu.org
I need practice developing perspectives of the geometric shapes I see when I'm doing figure drawings. These are doodles. (See the Nose Bridge to Nowhere?)
This is from an assignment on Dyxum.com. Dyxum is a website dedicated the Minolta and Sony A-Mount cameras and lenses. One of the nice things about the site is that they have some truly knowledgeable and dedicated photographers there who are willing to take the time to craft assignments for other photographers to shoot to better their trade.
This assignment was entitled 'Perspective.'
It's a three part assignment and in the first part, you were supposed to take a telephoto shot, and then a wide angle shot, and crop the wide angle shot in Post to be the same framing and size as the original.
The second part is to take a wide angle lens, a telephoto lens, and a 'normal' lens. Shoot your subject with the Wide and the Tele lenses, and then put the normal lens on the camera. Move forward and back on foot until the size and framing of the original is duplicated in the 'normal' lens. I shot that part with a Tamron 28-75mm, so I used 28mm and 75mm as my wide and tele, and then 55mm as my 'normal' and moved front and back. I should have moved further back for the wide part.
Finally, Part C is walk around until you find something you want to shoot, and STOP and SHOOT IT. Then, look at the photo, and see how it can be improved by moving the camera up or down, and left to right. I moved five feel left, and reframed and shot You can see the difference a mere 5' makes.

New life. It happens every time…
On Tuesday my nephew, Peter Nathaniel, entered the world. His mother (my brother’s wife) had a relatively horrible pregnancy. There were scares regarding his health and that of his mom. There was waiting and misery and anxiety and pain. And then, on a lovely spring morning, this beautiful, healthy baby boy made his appearance. There is nothing like new life to shift your perspective. From pain to joy, from worry to relief, from squirms inside to snuggles outside… The miracle of the creation of life continues, every time I experience it, to shift my perspective. Suddenly the whines of a three year old, mounds of soiled clothing, time-tables to meet, errands to run – none of those matter. God’s amazing grace. God’s awesome gift of life. It’s like He’s handing us this child as a precious treasure – to hold, to nurture, to teach, to love, to bring His glory to His world.
So here is my one-day-old nephew, perhaps from God’s view. Looking down as this new life is swaddled with care and cherished with love. I imagine His heart filled with celebration and anticipation and a huge, knowing smile of the unimaginable plans He has for this child. Now that’s an incredible perspective.

Have got this shot already in the stream but I thought i would throw this one in aswell just for a bit of perspective
This high point was the day DeGobbi posted his Crawler Town: my photostream hits jumped to 4882 and 3998 later that weekend. He''s currently got 157,000 views on one photo alone, and a bit has trickled over to my stream after he said he was inspired by my creations. You'll see a 1818 later on, which is when I posted my eight-legged walker. Kinda puts things in perspective.
The students and teachers of Perspectives Middle Academy (located in Auburn Gresham) are making tremendous academic and social emotional learning growth. Just this past year SY 2013-2014, they made almost two (2) grade levels of growth in both math and reading.

Looking at the thistle's perpective as part of a mini workshop with Pam Link. :-)
While waiting long periods of time for the Eagles to fly near, the thistles in the area have been photographed by everyone a lot. So with a short talk on perspective, Pam had Devra and I laying on the ground talking shots of a lone dried thisle on the road. It was too fun.
Another angle that caught my eye in the Duomo at Pisa. I was playing with the strong perspectives in the nave's double aisles, and I thought these nice benches underlined the effect (so do the roped-off benches in the central nave, marching off towards the high altar).
