The Logic Behind My Logic

[abraxas]

When I was young,
I would nap in the sun
Until one day
I woke up in a barely lit room

The room
had no door
or
window nor

was there a way
out for me
I looked around for
what I would see

I seen what I saw
& took the saw
to saw in half all I could see

It was clear to me
from what I could see

the two halves had fallen on the floor
and made a whole
I escaped through the hole

so I could see
all that I saw before

These days
I've built two half-homes
Because two halves make one

As you can see
There are windows as ways
I use to let in the sun

But I broke them so
I can come and go

and occasionally help me
climb out and be free
whenever I need to have fun.

Cool, and thank you, and thank you for spending your #700 here.

Well captured and toned. Great shot

Beautiful shot, great contrast

love it!

I very much like the angle you captured of the house and the clouds streaking by in the background. That and the barren landscape gives a great sense of solitude.

I was going for a y2k/armageddon bunker look (whatever happened to those guys anyhow? They still out there?). & Thanks!

 

[Battou]

Nicely done

focal length and distance to that closest corner?

Sorry- I don't do math any more than I have to. I did use a 10-20mm lens. I get pretty close and use the tilt to increase distortion. I usually don't clean out the exif, so you could probably check that for data.

1/125 second
F22
10 mm
naturally i dont know the distance to the subject.

Sounds about right. I was maybe 3 feet from the corner of the building.

no worries, i was just hoping you'd say 10mm-17mm or something like that, i want more encouragement to get one, you've given it to me, thanks eh

I just went through about 100 of my wide angle shots for printing, it cracks me up, I had to crop them all to 8x10 and it seemed like lost whatever I gained with the w/a on the crop. I'm not going to let it stop me though- I like the lens.

So, no love lost on the syncopated poem eh?

I wrote it to be as halting and awkward as possible- yet still have a slight rhyme in there...
