same subject, different perspective

this is the same palm frond that i posted yesterday, photographed from a different angle. yesterday it looked static and complete and even a little bit two dimensional. for this photo, i simply moved the camera overhead instead of off to the side, and suddenly the frond was three dimensional and kinetic and very much in the process of becoming something new. i stand by my assertion that yesterday’s photo is the prettier of the two. but this one is, in deference to my husband, pretty interesting.
