vantage point taken


I was struck by how fleeting this image was. With the snow coming down lightly it wasn't going to keep this design for too long.


Same with the tire marks etched into fresh snow due to be melted away as the morning traffic increases.


The singled out pattern perfectly placed on the discoloured pavement and impressed with weight focused to imbue a state of dissociative thought.


These grouped and hardy against winter 'flowers' can take on a shine when the slanting sun finds them standing and waiting.


Somewhere in the randomness of the way nature displays objects is a cohesive pattern freely distributed and magically pure.


Gee, there's something about the way all these lines appear when grouped together and the shadow reflection seems perfect given the secrecy of this society.


With the idea in mind that it was only my perspective that was unable to discern an image, I started holding the camera at strange unexpected angles and taking pictures up into the air looking for lines as an ongoing theme. I took over fifty shots that way and selected some of the better ones.


Looking straight up a telephone pole.


Inside some bushes.


Looking up a tall tree.


Again in the bushes.


Up a trellis under the bridge.


Continuing with the strange angle theme straight up from between the boots.


Another beautiful end to the day, this colour burst was gone in less than two minutes, but such an awesome flow to watch go!
