Inspired by Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Pairs
~~~
The sun finally started showing up in my living room recently. I was most grateful…and out came the camera. As well as, of course, the deck chairs. More specifically a pair of Adirondack chairs…souvenirs from a long ago trip to Coronado, California. They remind me of the beach. Somewhere there is a mini jelly jar full of sand that also made the trip back home.
These days, this pair of chairs has to settle for a view out the window in snow covered New Hampshire. As do I.
Inspired by Lens-Artists Challenge #86: Change Your Perspective
…we invite you to break the habit of shooting photos at eye-level and change your perspective. Instead, show us your photographs taken from a variety of perspectives–by getting down low, by looking up at the subject or looking down, or walking around the subject.

This past Sunday – sunny but cold – seemed a perfect opportunity for a walk on the beach. The bright afternoon sun enhanced the perspective potential for this challenge…and I am always chasing the light.
It didn’t disappoint.
Along the walkway bordering the beach is a shelter that covers several lines of benches. The sun lit it up with lines as well.
Catching my eye from one side…
At first…one side
A bit less eye-catching from the other side…
And then the other side…
Venturing underneath and looking up…
Taking a look up…
…revealed an entirely different display.
I continued walking down the boulevard…but before turning around to head back to my car, I glanced up.
Apparently two seagulls took it upon themselves to be on the lookout atop a light pole.
