Today's Photo -
a Philadelphia Skyscraper.
a view looking north on 16th Street in downtown Philadelphia,
shortly before our relocation from central NJ to Florida.
Philadelphia is the city in which Sam and I were born
and grew up. When I shot this picture, I was attracted
by the straight lines and the sturdiness of the building
and, then, the openness of looking skyward.
Laurie Kristensen, a friend, captured it beautifully,
when she wrote:
"I love your urban shot... the contrast
between the warmth of the old-world lantern and brick
building against the modern steel and glass skyscrapers
is striking, especially framed by the tall dark shadowy
buildings along the edges!"
Self-Reflecting Queries -
Are there places in your life where things look stark and cold, heavy contrasts? If so, and you look further, can you find warmth and light somewhere in that picture?
Can you also create it to be multi-dimensional and uplifting as the imagery in the photo above?
