In (or Out) The Window

Round Robin Photo Challenge

The idea for this one is to stand (or sit) outside a window, and photograph through it to whatever is inside. This can be a window of your house, a car window, the window of a business, or a display case, or even a window in your wallet. The only catch is that you are outside that window, and whatever you’re photographing is inside. Perhaps there’s a big holiday display window at a nearby department store. Perhaps you keep knickknacks on a window ledge and they can be seen from outside. Or you may be looking through a window at a beloved pet who is waiting to greet you! Whichever way you do it, there will probably be reflections to be coped with, and angles to be considered. That’s why it’s a Challenge!

For this challenge, I had hoped to get busy this week with the camera, but alas, it was not to be….so, from the archives I have selected this photo from March of this year. I went to Reiff’s Gas Station for a photo shoot for the Round Robin challenge “Within Five Miles”. One of the shots I didn’t use for that week was taken….through the window!

This part of the house/museum is an old-fashioned 1950’s diner.

For my next pair of photos, I went back to July, 2008, while we were in Ireland. This day, which just happened to be our 25th anniversary, we went into Westport for some shopping, and stopped for lunch at Curry’s Cottage, a combination bakery and tea shop. I really like their window displays, so I tried to get some photos…first from the inside….

And then again, from the outside, looking in!
