Abracadabra!
How well do you know your algebra?
It is as easy as one, two, three
Even before you can boot your PC…

…The carriage of comfort
Has lifted you upwards
Your destination dead ahead
Nothing more left to be said

Day Seven: “Big” — A Point of View

Today, let’s go big. Photograph something of massive size, inside or outside. Get creative with your shot: Capture all or just part of the subject. Place it in the foreground so it takes up the entire frame. Or shoot it from afar so it appears smaller — yet still prominent.

“We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us” Winston Churchill

A tall glass house of blue
Possibly quite see through
Hardly qualified as a skyscraper
But with many a
Windows, doors and elevators
It’s easily a wannabe simulator

These are the colours of spring
Can you hear bell the ding?
It’s time for a singalong!

“98% of what gets built today is shit” – Frank Gehry

Buildings At Dusk (Daily Photo)

Tall buildings
Simple,
Without gilding
Built from glass
Possibly to last
Piercing the nightly sky
Lit up pretty
And aiming high

“It’s snowing outside”

She loudly out cried
When through the window eyed
But then, with one quick stride
Without even a good-bye
And to everyone’s surprise
She was gone like a spy
Out into the great wild
Also known as the outside
