Visual journal - 3rd January 2014

This gorgeous chestnut (horse chestnut, I think, rather than sweet) tree stands nearly opposite my apartment. There's a seat around the trunk and I sat there to take this photo. I never realised how narrow that building was at the end before, it's nice to get a different viewpoint sometimes, feeling very "o, captain my captain" now.

Thanks Sarah. I could have driven myself crazy taking dozens of the same thing but I've found that so often even if I do that it's the first photo that ends up being the best one, I'm trying to just trust my instincts. Often I notice details much later that I really like too, like the way you can see the shadow of the tree on the building as well as the actual tree outlined against the sky.
