A Different City, A Different Point of View, A Different Series of Posts!

Hello, hello!

Two posts in one day? Well actually to be fair, the previous post had been started while I was still at Conn--I just didn't have the time or energy to finish it until now. ^^;; So technically, I didn't do two posts in one night. In any case, I thought that since I was back home, I might as well start a new series of posts.

This new series is called A Different Point of View and probably won't be added to as regularly as First Touch for a number of reasons. First is that, unlike First Touch, this is not a documentary series. Second is that being back in the city, there is not as much flora to capture unless I were to frequent the botanical gardens or snap shots of the sidewalk trees. That's not to say that the city is barren however, so expect that there will be posts over the summer. I might still put up pics from Conn however, though I would much prefer to do that when I am actually at Conn. In any case, I'm diverging.

Different Point of View is an idea I had, I think, on a rainy day. I've always wanted to go running around taking pictures in the rain, which isn't such a great idea for my camera. So I decided that what better way to take pictures of the rain without being in the rain than to go at it from the inside? Plus, living on the fourth floor really gives one a different perspective on plants outside one's window. Unfortunately my camera was not on hand when I had this idea, so no rain pictures. And I managed to get window pictures only once, but in any case, the purpose of this series is to get pictures that are not necessarily from a traditional outside viewpoint, but from different locations, such as inside, perhaps one day from a treetop, etc.

I've rambled on enough, so without further ado, I present to you...a different point of view--from the fourth floor windows of my dorm. I assure you, each and every one of these are all window shots, some with zoom, others without.


Ah, the mysterious window makes a partial appearance

With a visible window ledge
With zoom, as you can probably tell

Should be easier to tell in this picture that I was a ways above ground level!
A-ha! A window comes into view! To be honest, I took this picture because I was amused by the presence of the spoon



And now, from my room window...
Silly me, not opening the screen...
Let there be light...

Yep yep. That's all for now. It'd be great if there were some suggestions for other points of views I could take. Until next time then.
