Taking a step back
A detail from a housing development. Now, let me put this in perspective:

It’s not mine
In the distance there is Frankfurt am Main and if you take a magnifying glass you might see the skyscrapers that gave it the moniker Mainhattan (pronounced mine hattan).

Threesomes
The rule of three is not something that comes naturally to me. I had a hard time going through my old photos and look where editing might help. I’ve come up with two completely different kinds of shot.

Mountain Meadow – tetrahedron
I’ve been waiting to use that word!

A toothy perspective
And while I was remembering Munich yesterday, here is the statue of Bavaria – the lady and her lion who each year (except for this one) overlook the Oktoberfest at the Theresienwiese.

Walking Man
The Walking Man walks in Munich alongside the Leopoldstraße. I have to add non-square photos of the sculpture by Jonathan Borofsky to do it justice, though.
The photos were taken on the same day but taken from different sides excluding or including the greenery which makes for a completely different perspective.

Is it a flock? Is it a flight? No, it’s a dissimulation!
The Elwedritsche are mythical creatures believed to live in the Southwest of Germany. Often described as being birdlike but with antlers and scales instead of feathers, there are really very little bounds to the imagination. In Neustadt an der Weinstraße a whole dissimulation of Elwedritsche can be seen frolicking in the waters of a fountain, getting themselves wet and everybody who cares to stand close to them.
I picked the word dissimulation from a collection of collective nouns for birds. It seemed appropriate.

Narrow streets, surprising perspectives
Walking through the old part of Heppenheim, a turn around a corner can offer a new and surprising perspective.

Forced perspective
When taking photos in narrow lanes it is often not possible to decide on your perspective. Unless you are going for detail rather than the whole house you can only look up.
