  Starting a new set … ‘The Language of Lines’, with Linear Perspectives!
  
  Create impact using lines, perspective and dynamic angles to a vanishing point.
  
  Think about … forced perspective, size, tilt, depth.

      Thank you. From my X-T3, one of the recipes I plugged in. 90% of my shots are jpegs, a little contrast and exposure adjusting only.

    @davidc both shots are super, but the b/w caught my eye because it is so unusual and very well composed to catch all the elements.

    Thank you @davidc and @robertapple. The B/W is a neat stream in suburbia that makes its way down rocks and fallen trees into a clear pool – with all the bubbly swirls. It’s fascinating – and thanks for your comments.

      @robertapple and @patography – That is the ceiling at the entry to the Helsinki Central Library Oodi in Helsinki. I found it mesmerizing.

    Agreed, Stef. Is this a tent/awning or part of a hot air balloon? Great shot

    Great shot, Michael. You’ve captured the “Komorebi” (木漏れ日), a Japanese term that translates to “sunlight leaking through trees” beautifully.
