Castle rock taken farther and from a wider angle. A different perspective with rays of sunshine coming in.
Is the child too small for the shoes, or the shoes too big for the child? It's a matter of perspective, uh?
Yes, I know that I've probably titled 20+ photos "Perspective", but this one shows the relative size of the Furtwangler Glacier.
A good friend of mine reminded me that I had not given serious thought to perspective, so I started to remedy that situation. This is a rought 1-point perspective fun sketch. Yes... that's a big J. :) That silly plane is a reminder that there's more serious work ahead.
Thanks also go to Jonathan Rector for his quick perspective tuts on youtube. He's on Twitter too @artbyjar. More to come!

The moment you pick a Macro lens, your view of things,flowers and insects take a perspective leap. Those minute objects that you never gave a second look become so beautiful and an entire new world has its key unlocked for you.
This is a minute flower (Smaller than a one cent coin) and I have never bothered to look at this flower as a potential subject. I take my macro lens and this becomes a really joyous flower.
“The material basis of media technologies – and books are only one example – is changing, for which historical perspectives might give not only comforting back-up (‘nothing is as permanent as change’) but also ideas to push the change forward.” (Jussi Parikka, 2012)
We can certainly talk about change; our present landscape is a space where the digital and physical have become synonymous, which many believe to be signaling the coming of an ontology-less future, through the accelerated disruption of cultural value. In this light old standards show their age and obsolescence in the face of the new, and with each new wave of informational overload we are further alienated by the system, that revolves around an economy of monetary circulation. All these factors come together to push a re-evaluation of identity and the human value. This brings to mind the genealogy of currency, articulated by Joseph Beuys during the discussion entitled What is money? : “Of course ‘Geld’ [‘money’] comes from ‘Gold’, same etymology. But it comes equally from ‘Geltung’ [‘validity’], meaning the value people fix based on their perception of a natural right. The word ‘Geltung’ is rooted in representations of a natural right, while the word ‘Gold’ is rooted in the economy of barter!” (Joseph Beuys, 2012).
In this light, Geltung [validity]: perception of a natural right brings together four artistic investigations that re-evaluate established methods of financial exchange bestowing new material values and identities to their subjects. In a landscape where monetary currency is pinnacle, the artists interrogate notions of personal and individual history, locality and its impact in identity and the framework that contains our cultural objects.
Diogo da Cruz’s work, WORDCOIN (2016 – Current), proposes the implementation of a new currency, that will give a literal value to each one’s speech. By creating The Bank for Argumentation, the costumer-museum-goer will have the opportunity to trust his or hers arguments to an institution that can save and trade them, giving the deserved and objective exposure to their ideas. Max Dovey presents Breath (BRH) (2017), a digital currency that is mined through human respiration. The installation combines breathing and micro-computers to mine, store and trade human breath as a virtual currency on the crypto-market(s). The market value of BRH is determined by the inflation created by respiratory miners who participate in the physical installation. Felicity Hammond’s artworks draws upon images from her own archive, using documents of the landscape and found images online; those of both existing and imagined future spaces. Hammond utilises particular motifs and structures that respond specifically to the digital representations found online of Dundee’s vast regeneration programme. For I keep forgetting I’ve been to Tokyo: GAIDEN (2017), Petra Szemán follows the virtual self through parallel and intersecting realities, along the departure-initiation-return structure of a hero’s journey. Drawing upon personal and/or constructed experiences, the work explores the idea of a non-localised identity that’s an archive of accumulated personal mythologies acquired from a multitude of realities.

Under the prow. As you can see, the perspective is still one of looking up. You have a choice of how to progress through the museum (up or down), and the top floor is a little above the level of the deck. So obviously there's still all the rigging and masts above you. I liked the design of the building because it focused all your attention on the ship -- there was no funny business like there was with the Museum of Modern Art in Frankfurt, what with dead-end hallways and strangely designed rooms with multiple entrances.
Vicky demonstrating how to take a photo with a different perspective! Natesh quickly sits down to try the shot himself!
It's amazing what you can see if you really open your eyes...
For starters, there are many ways to view the same thing....
Perspective....it's all in how you look at it....
Hmm.....makes you think a little bit.....
Very profound Mike...., but....,..... Whats with all the dots.... ?
Cathédrale Saint-Corentin de Quimper. Le monument actuel de style gothique est édifié au xiiie siècle sur la base d'édifices plus anciens, et achevé sous le Second Empire.
La cathédrale est considérée comme l'élément majeur du patrimoine quimpérois, attirant de nombreux touristes venus admirer ses flèches culminant à plus de 75 mètres au-dessus du sol et encadrant la statue du roi légendaire Gradlon.
