I shot and posted a shot from approximately the same spot with a similar perspective last year. http://365project.org/stray_shooter/photo-a-day-14/2014-02-22 It's remarkable to note the difference in the light and change resulting from the slight change in perspective. Oh, and the bench is populated too.
Oh Ron, I'm going to have to go back and look for these views that you (and Joy) got! This is gorgeous! It's a classic art-class lesson in perspective, isn't it?!
Great capture! Love the light in this showing us the warm colours. Such a different feel to your earlier shot. The person sitting gives you perspective and adds an air of relaxation to the image! Fav!
@Weezilou Well let me know when you do that, Louise - I never get tired of trying to capture the many corridor shots offered by the mission there. Truth be told I know nothing about art and perspective and all - I just knew the view appealed to me. Really didn't know what I had until I got home and played with it some on the computer.
