Inspired by so many wonderful examples I took the camera walking this morning to try the vertical vs horizontal comparison. What do you think?
Here we are walking down from Bingi Bingi Point to Bingi Beach, along the Dreaming Track. Our grandchildren were with us to celebrate my birthday today … and the others were here last night too … party time! This was quite a long walk, five km return, and the children were tired when we got home. However they cheered up immediately because they had made dark chocolate truffles as a birthday present for me, and it was time to try them. Yum!!!
nice track! and Happy Birthday 🙂
when you are down this way you could walk here ….
would be lovely…
Great photo, both ways. Happy Birthday!
thank you angeline … it has been a gorgeous day 🙂
Happy Birthday, Christine 😀 That looks like a wonderful and safe beach to swim because it is so flat and sheltered.
thank you bluebee, i appreciate your good wishes … it was a lovely day … probably just as sunny and spring-like in Sydney … yes the beaches here are fairly safe, especially ours, which faces north so is usually sheltered from big seas … there were surfers on the southern side of Bingi Bingi Point today but the north was quiet, just our friend who swims all year, doing laps along the shoreline 🙂
Vertical! You seem to get more track that way 🙂
yes i agree jo, it was fun trying it out and enjoying the results!
The track is beautiful! Love the beach shot. Have a great day!
thank you amy, it was a really lovely sunny day with loving family having fun 🙂
Happy Birthday, Christine! Time is both vertical and horizontal… so you are always as young (or as old) as anybody else… 😉
food for thought thanks thomas … you always have something interesting to add to my day!
Dear Christine happy happy birthday! Love your photos, the portrait one wins – I think!
yes i agree gilly … i like the steps going down down down to the beach 🙂 …. and it was a happy birthday with family and food 🙂
Horizontal looks like the arrival; vertical looks like the journey. 🙂
mmm, thoughtful response susie 🙂
I love how the focus changes depending on if it’s vertical or horizontal: the boardwalk vs. the ocean. Happy birthday!!
i thought it was fascinating too cathy … thanks for your good wishes!
i like the vertical because the diagonal line begins in the corner of the image
good point mj … just a lucky snap as we were moving along … i had to be quick with the grandchildren setting the pace!
Ah sorry to have missed this Christine. Belated birthday wishes!
The portrait is my pick too 🙂
thanks madhu … it was a perfect weekend 🙂
I love how the horizontal shot emphasizes the water and the vertical draws you to the path!
i found the whole perception exercise enlightening!
Nice brace of shots Christine – looks like a nice place to walk on your Birthday – many happy Returns 🙂 That path leads quite nicely onto both images doesn’t it 🙂
