Our view for a couple of nights while staying at the Milford Sound Lodge. Not sure if the guage is for snow or water levels.

We found this amazing place on a hike in the south of Crete. We just sat and enjoyed the view filling our souls.

Who hasn't made a viewing box? If not, take an empty shoebox, cut out a window in front and cover the roof with transparent paper in any color you like. Now place elements in it - one slightly behind the other - and peep through the window. Lo and behold your own magical mystery world. An ideal Xmas-activity with (grand) children!
The perspective we see in a viewing box is real. Objects are lined up one after the other. But it feels very artificial because we understand that the brain fools us.
Photos (the flat print) fool us in another way. Seeing perspective is a trick of the brain. Our pattern recognization notices depth. We don't even think of clues like big forms in front and smaller ones in the back. Or even better, the converging lines to a vanishing point.
Popel Coumou (1978, Netherlands) combines all this tomfoolery. She uses an old-fashioned pair of scissors and colored paper to create an illusion of space on a flat surface. Sometimes she takes a photo of the result. Here she simply mounted the paper cutting in a lightbox, thus returning to the origin of 'photo-graphy' which means writing with light.
A mesmerizing view of water blue shades and natural circles patterns on the surface.

I've moved to a new place and this is my view. It's awesome. Lots of parks and streams. Photo texturized.

Canary Wharf seen from near Shadwell Basin. The Thames bends a lot and the towers are on the same side of the river as this viewing point.
The Captain Henry Waterhouse Reserve.
View looking south across the harbour to the city.
Kirribilli, Sydney.
So I took the Metro from the Hills District to Chatswood, and then the main T1 train line to Milsons Point. After coffee at the Kirribilli Village Cafe I walked down to the harbour to catch the ferry from Milsons Point Wharf, but first taking a few photos from the forest in the Captain Henry Waterhouse Reserve. This forest is home to a colony of 'Tawny Frogmouth' native Australian birds.

On a drive out, took this view from the Roadside.
Not far from Garndolbenmaen, a village in the County of Gwynedd, North Wales.
The closest villages are Dolbenmaen and Brincir.
Lots of dark places out there. Lots of places of light as well! People tend to see the dark much more than the light. Pity. On the other hand, there's no shadow without a light and no light without a shadow...

Classic sight of how New York would have looked 100 yrs, back. Ships of all sizes along lower Manhattan, with the Brooklyn bridge spanning the east river. Air quality at the time would have been obscuring the view of the bridge.
