These are two shots of the same piece of art walk in Absteinach in the Odenwald. The difference lies in the focus on the opening or the focus at the things seen through the opening. The Cosmic Photo Challenge: Through an Opening

Walking towards the three
And this time I’ll add the portrait version of the same shot because it illustrates what a difference in perspective the format of a picture makes.
Whereas the square shot directs the viewer to the actual view beyond those narrow walls, the portrait version emphasises the path. At least, that’s how I see it.

Durchblick
The German word Durchblick can literally mean “looking through” but is used more often in its figurative meaning: understanding or being in the know.
And a German proverb to remind us of another important opening: Love, it states (literally), goes through the stomach. In English you would say: The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.
