Today ends my self-imposed month of black and white or selective color, and I'll be honest, I'm a bit happy about it. I've committed myself (at least for now) to work on Macro March (so, please join along!).
I wanted something structural for my final shot of the month. I'm in love with my wide-angle lens now, especially when I decide to look up or down with it. I went in search this afternoon for a tall glass building, but when you are in the burbs, there is very little to work with. This is just below some medical complex buildings on a hill off Old Milton Rd. As I took some shots, some crows perched up at the top of this building and then one came into view just as I took the shot! I love how it forms a silhouette against the sky.
Onto another month! I'm 1.5 of the way into year two. So pleased to be here with all of you. :)
I really like this! (That's after I got over the shock, seeing the thumbnail, of thinking that you were teetering on the edge of a building and looking into the beyond!)
@mrsbaldy That's a huge accomplishment! Congrats! I'm thinking since spring is coming here, I can take all kinds of macros of tree/flower buds emerging and learn what they are. That's the plan for now. I hope I don't abandon the goal. :)
@luvmynynix You are very kind Laurie. I really do love this one and ending the month with a strong (and sought-after, not accidental) shot was a nice thing for me. In fact, today has been an excellent day all around (which has not been the case for some time). :)
Have I missed a challenge about macro March? I can't seem to find anything about it. I love macro and would love to have a go at this. Are there any rules or guidelines?
This is absolutely amazing, Daryl...it has this strong feel to it with the angle and the materials of the building, but yet a free soaring spirit to it also...lofty. I love it! fav I am doing Macro March as well!

I think it can be anything up close depending on your camera and lenses. Thanks for the kind comments. :)
love the perspective and composition
