I thought I’d try for a few different takes on this week’s challenge. The first photo is an old one that my son and his friends set up when they hauled a broken mannequin all around the city taking photos.
Here’s a photo of a metal grid with a brick wall in the distance. The grid is a stair platform that is only about 4 feet wide. Near and far is a relative thing.
I took this photo at a wedding reception. I like the clarity of the table centerpiece against the blurred focus of the women in the distance.
Here’s a photo of a friend standing on one of the overlook balconies on the Gorge Bridge outside of Taos, New Mexico.
My favorite near and far photo was taken on a bus in Eastern Turkey. I love the details you see in the bus and how far you can see in the distance.
It seems almost anywhere you travel in the world you can see the familiar McDonald’s sign!

Nice perspective photos! Love the view of Taos over your friend’s shoulder. Before reading the last sentence in your post I thought, “Is that a Mickey D’s sign in Turkey?!?”

Thanks. In Eastern Turkey it was really seeing that sign. We did not visit. No billboard blitz is going to make me!

Some very interesting shots here – like the grid and the table centrepiece paticularly. And you’re right, those ubiquitous golden arches … EVERYwhere.

Thank you. I wanted to thank you also for posting the photo from St-Malo. I was there with my family many years ago and remember vividly walking the ramparts.

I like that a rusty stair grate can look so good! There’s beauty everywhere if you stop to look. Thanks for the comment.

I stick with the photo challenge for one post a week, and because I love to create, print, cook etc. there always seems to be something I can share. Sometimes I’m a bit stuck for “what’s next?” but I like meeting my personal challenge of 3 posts per week. Thanks for your comment – makes me feel good.
