Tree in the WindowMarch 11, 2012 @ 7:28pm
I like how in each of these two images there is a tree reflected in one of the panes.
I could not see this from my angle. I was holding the camera up as high as I could, on tiptoes even, relying on live view to frame these 2nd floor beauties.
Pleasant surprise when I got home.

Deux magnifiques photos, Mike. Love both of them.

I agree! You are tall enough to be able to pull this off, too.

BTW, if you have a monopod, you could use it to raise your camera! Or perhaps even a tripod with legs together. It'd take more than one try, of course - but since it's digital, all the ones that didn't work can be deleted.

I keep meaning to try it with my monopod, but don't seem to remember to drag out the monopod when I leave with the camera.

Thank you both for commenting.
Right Flo. Sometines a tripod or monopod can help in raising the camera to get a better perspective. I loved the early G series Canons for the view screen that you could tilt to make this possible.

I understand that they brought this back.

Unfortunately I did not have a tripod with me.

Nice eye, Michael. It is amazing that just one tree reflected in each pane of the window. Does that mean that there was only one tree to reflect in these old windows?

Makes me think of an advent calendar -- a little gift behind the window(pane). Smile
