Photo Friday: The Down Angle

This photo was taken with the same point and click camera I mentioned in last week’s Photo Friday.

In this case, I was further south near Colorado Springs.  Yes, I was on a mountain, and I was looking down from a decent overhang when I decided to snap this shot.

I keep trying to take this shots, but they don’t give the right sense of scale that I’m looking for.  I still like it, though.

    Hi Patrick.

    I’ve learned over the years and by experimentation, that having something in the foreground or background of known size that provides a frame of reference helps capture for the viewer what the real size of what’s going on.

    (A telephoto lens, though, compresses the image and makes that harder).
