Visualizing Points of View

With this photo series I mostly played with contrast, focus points, and point of view.

The point of view of an ant. They don’t have the time or need to look at the scenery. They have the weight of the cycle of life on their back. Indeed they are small, but they keep things running. They don’t have time to stop and smell the flowers. 

 

The point of view of a bee. Flowers open up and out for these special buzzing critters. Bees are like the factory workers of the Earth– and very under appreciated workers at that. 

The point of view of a squirrel. Squirrels are fast paced and anxious, so much so I can believe that they can only focus on one thing clearly at a time– making everything else a blur. They are much like humans in this regard.

 The point of view of a deer. They stand tall, proud, and skiddish. Humans are always caught off guard in a pleasant way when they see deer. But all the deer care for is their young and the flowery weeds growing in the open field. 

The point of view of a bird. Birds can fly wherever they please, and are envied by many humans because of that ability. They land effortlessly on thin branches, and seem to look down upon us.  

The point of view of a human. Yes, we can see far and wide and a lot all at once. But we hardly ever pick out the details, out lives are so fast paced. We do not understand what we have or see. But I do admit, I took the time to smell the fresh grass and sea breeze.
