One of our assignments during the Miksang Institute Summer Program was titled “Simplicity—the Relationship of Form and Space”. Out of ten images submitted for review, only one of mine hit the mark! These were photographed a couple of days later, and might have been judged acceptable…or maybe not.

I’ll keep working on it.

Just the other day… I went downtown to visit with a friend, and spent some time wandering around before and after with my camera. Returning home, I was surprised to discover how many photographs had this theme—without conscious intent! (All three were captured on that outing.)

The last one is for Andreas.  🙂
