| Table for 2 London, ON July 2013 |
Conventional wisdom would dictate that this is an act of reduction or degradation. Thankfully I'm not conventional. Losing a dimension doesn't necessarily mean losing anything at all. Sometimes, you gain a perspective you wouldn't have had in the first place.
Like here, with the little table we bought for our deck. I rather liked the downward view when we first brought it home, and felt it would be a great launch shot for this week's downward theme.

I didn't recognize that as a table until I read that it was. Nice perspective shot. Here are my "downward" shots.
ReplyDeleteI like that table, Carmi!

This week's theme has brought back a lot of memories for me so I am telling you a story that I believe represents well the "downward" theme.

Groovy shot. Until you read the description you really have no idea what it is. My first thought was art of some kind. Love it!

Carmi, here we are looking down on Cayuga Lake.
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat capture, you surprised me with what this was. Deck tends to spring to my mind. Very cool Carmi! Here's mine

Still even now, taking about my tenth look at it, what a cool shot, because I just can't see it being a table, on top of your deck! Wow, just wow. I may have to try this myself.
ReplyDeleteGot 2 examples this week! :-)

I can't match that table shot, but I do have lots of downward photos I'd like to post! Here's one lot.
ReplyDeleteLate again!
ReplyDeleteHowdy! Carmi, the table looks like it's inlaid in your deck! Great picture :) Here's my submission: http://jessbrady1035.wordpress.com/2013/08/15/picture-a-day-12-thematic-photographic-256-downward/

It is just the way my summer is going to be a little bit late. But I thought you might appreciate the intent behind capturing these downward shots.
