The Wonders and Perils of Looking Up

That’s a house in the town centre of Bad Tölz. Like most houses here it is beautifully maintained. It has a cute little dormer, the windows are set-off by paintings and it has painted and raised stone panels running up the facade. Looking up reveals a painted, maybe even tiled border in the overhang of the roof. The difficulty in photographing a house like this is caused by the narrow streets which makes it difficult to get a shot of of the whole house. Furthermore, being in a group and not being able to really set up a shot results in cut off corners and weird angles. But here it is.

Nancy Meryll was asking for a series of photos from above and from below of the same thing for A Photo a Week.  These photos were taken in Neustadt an der Weinstraße at the festival of the wine harvest.  From the top of the ferris wheel one has a great view of the festival, the town, and the whole area.  And from below it’s a structure of metal beams.
