Hi Saurabh,
It seems you've been on a high perch of late confounding us with this perspective. These top down perspectives had me thinking about how well we know the world we live in. Your images are a new world for I believe perspectival shift changes the world. So here I am like a child not knowing anything about the world you presented. All my acquired wisdom of seeing has no meaning in front of this click. Coming to specifics. How am I to understand this image? This new world. Life seems to have a frontal quality about it. All our aesthetic parametrs are based on frontal vision. here in this image there is
a) no horizon to see things against
b) no way to separate foreground from background as there isn't sufficient depth
c) things look like decoys
d) even the general rule of thirds doesn't seem to work here. The bird is located almost in the middle without looking odd.
A very thought provoking image and a big thanks for this. Sometime back I was contemplating that when we have known all there is to know in this world there would still be the world of nocturn to turn to. Now it seems I need to add the world of perspective to the list.
Thanks for being on the perch for all of us.
Be there more often and keep sending us these riddles.

Dear Nirlepsir,
I am really hugely happy to have such nice words from your desk on this image, describing the images in an appropriate manner.
Most of the images I have made via this angle, are from a bridge in the outskirts of my city, which leads me to my office every day.
Since a long time I am not able to leave the city due to my office work, thus I fulfill my hunger while making images from this bridge.
Once again Thank you very much for such nice words on this image.
Best Regards
-Saurabh Desai
