Assignment: PCA 35 View from the ground floor
Deadline:August 3, 2008
Image Tag: pca35
From: me and them
Mission:
The ground floor... there's nowhere to go but up! This time around shoot whatever you want, but what's important is where your camera is: ground level. Be it the kitchen floor, an open field or hiding underneath a church pew, your perspective is going to be that of a mouse, a fairy, an ant, or anything else similarly relegated to the world of the small. Try to find a subject that is really complemented by your earthly perspective.
For those engineering types in the group who need precision (including yours truly), you don't need to have your camera exactly in contact with the ground. Let's say no more 3 inches from ground to camera base. Get those elbows dirty!

I loved this assignment. I'm always looking for unusual angles on scenes and enjoyed getting my knees dirty on this one (or wet, as by the riverbank!). As my photostream reflects, I took a lot of photos and considered long and hard which one to post here. Some resulted in great perspective conundrums (trolley.carriage baskets at the supermarket). Others showed flowers - and weeds from a different pov. Even my other half's booted feet were taken after we'd been fishing. All in all, as I said, I enjoyed the journey.
This shot is on one of my last journeys to the bus station after work! I liked the reds in this shot, also the #8 bus to nowhere. Lucky for some or not? Yellow parallel lines lead us up to the scene - and the tilt (sorry Farkled!) - was really necessary to get the bus and building more in shot. Minimal PP afterwards.

I've been wanting to try this shot for years, but haven't really had any idea of how to go about it. Thanks to my photography course I learned just how to do it, and gave it a try last weekend.
If I did it again I'd set a longer exposure and capture the light trails of the barrier gates going down as well, although that will require an exposure of about 45 seconds in order to catch the whole process.

This is an unusual crossing in that you have to pull up to the gates, get out and press a plunger - the gates raise if there is no train coming
Second visit to the Library of Birmingham. This time the 7th and 9th floors (5, 6 and 8 for staff only!).
I went up the lift, and used the stairs to go down. Some lifts only went as high as the 4th floor (one from the 7th only went down to the 4th).
Loads of tourists here, especially from overseas!
Level 9 - Shakespeare Memorial Room.
The Shakespeare Memorial Room is inside the golden cylinder, sitting above the rest of the building.
It was originally part of the much loved Victorian library.
It was created in 1882 to hous the Shakespeare Library, designed by John Henry Chamberlain who was responsible for re-building
the old Central Library after the original building was gutted by fire.
It was intended to suggest Elizabethan style with carvings, marguety and metalwork.
When the Central Library was demolished in 1974, the room was dismantled and stored, and eventually re-erected as part of the School of Music complex.
The panels were reassembled here like a jigsaw puzzle.
The roof has been reconstructed in plaster by A E Edwards & Co, a Birmingham based company dating to the 1870s.

113 pictures in 2013 project, number 101 "inconvenient"...one of the problems with shopping in Poole is the fact that the railway line runs straight throught the High Street!
I'm out and about a little bit, trying to walk a bit more each day

This shot was taken by a Sony NEX 5N using the Anti Motion Blur Mode which fires off 5 shots in quick succession at very high ISO. These shots are then processed by integration, effectively removing the noise. This photo of Woodman Point Jetty was taken in those magic minutes after sunset when the scene is evenly illuminated by the glow of the sky. The camera was suspended from a Dopero kite and fired off each shot at a 1/60th of a second at an ISO of 6400.
Taken on the TU Berlin Invasion Tour 2011.
Many funny moments, many a good laugh, with many good mates.
I think this translates to something like level 4 - artillary room?
The River Brue, just downstream of Glastonbury. The water level is a good couple of feet higher than the road alongside.
Thanks for stopping by and view this photo. The reason for posting this photo on Flickr is to learn so if you have constructive feedback regarding what I could do better and / or what should I try, drop me a note I would love to hear your input.
View on Black the way it should be seen!

I've had an old 28mm Pentax K mount lens in my camera bag for some time now. I haven't used it or the 50mm manual as much as I had wanted. So the 28mm and 50mm are getting a new run.
I went for a walk in unfamiliar territory this morning and found this rather unique sight, an old galvanized shed with railway tracks running up to and into the shed??? The tracks lead across the small road and gently sloped into a lake. I love it when you find something that leaves you wondering! I also like how my old 28mm manual captured the scene!
while walking around by the tide pools, i got a crazy idea: "why not lay down in front of where the waves break to get a photo?"
My camera's okay, but I got saltwater in my mouth. Nasty.
