A view of the Procuratie Vecchie on the north side of Piazza San Marco, Venice.
First constructed in the 12th century, Piazza San Marco is surrounded on three sides by monumental buildings, of which this is one. Today the arches under the Procuratie Vecchie house shops and historical restaurants such as Caffe Quadri and Caffe Florian.
Is a thing, the exact same thing, seen from a different perspective, from a different view?

Perspective (from Latin perspicere, to see clearly). And I clearly saw everything was pointing to this old Shack. So I thought I'd better take it's picture. Quick!
Now that I think of it, there was a rainbow out here last week.. Maybe I should have checked for a pot of gold. D'OH!
I'm interested in exploring the "get down low" way of photographing city streets. Since the Coney Island Boardwalk is still sparsely trafficked (due to cool, rainy weather), I can experiment without the risk of getting stepped on.

The U.S. Bank Tower (center), formerly Library Tower and First Interstate Bank World Center, is a 1,018-foot skyscraper at 633 West Fifth Street in downtown Los Angeles, California. It is the tallest building in California, the eleventh tallest in the United States, the tallest west of the Mississippi River, and the 65th tallest building in the world. Because local building codes require all high-rise buildings to have a helipad, it was known as the tallest building in the world with a roof-top heliport from its completion in 1989 to 2004 when Taipei 101 opened. It is also the second tallest building in a major active seismic region; its structure was designed to resist an earthquake of 8.3 on the Richter scale. It consists of 73 stories above ground and two parking levels below ground. Construction began in 1987 with completion in 1989. The building was designed by Henry N. Cobb of the architectural firm Pei Cobb Freed & Partners and cost $350 million to build. It is one of the most recognizable buildings in Los Angeles, often used in establishing shots for the city in films and television programs.
What the brain knows but the eye sees, windows are always vertical wall but one object that is always on the horizontal can trick the mind to say windows are in the street.
