I like the idea of this week’s challenge. When I saw “perspective” on my email, I ignored the post for a while – thinking I had to start trying to find a picture with an obvious vanishing point, or something architectural, or a railway line fading into a blip somewhere in North Dakota …
But no. Nothing that straightforward it appears. Instead, we are given an example of a cropped photo giving a different perspective than the original.
Gotta love a bit of lateral thinking … just the way I like it.
So here’s mine. Don’t forget to click on the photo(s) for better and clearer pictures.
Here’s a plain old silver birch as you may (or may not) notice as you wander through the woods:
Look a bit closer, and you see the way the bark peels away from the tree and curls up:
But look what magic happens when you catch one of those peely bits with the sun behind iit:
(there’s four pictures, so don’t click off after one)

Impressive
Thank you very much (Or were you talking about the fire impersonation trick? In which case, the tree thanks you very much).
:o)
I was talking about the tree and how you managed to capture it so well. So it was an “impressive” to you both 😀
I am absolutely completely gobsmacked. Did you know you were going to get that fiery image, or were you as surprised as I am?
that is lovely … and I’m glad you’ve kept your header image — I love it!
