On a recent daybreak walk, I noticed that our city’s historical court house (built in 1928 and designated as a provincial heritage property) was nicely framed on two levels by the foreground trees.
There was no traffic at that time of day, so I felt safe to inch back and forth on the middle of the street, trying to get a balanced shot of the framing of both the main entrance with its front lawn fountain and the central cupola at the top.
Unfortunately, the unruly tree branches didn’t fully cooperate for the photo I saw in my mind’s eye, but this was the closest one of several attempts.
I wonder if the city maintenance crew would trim those branches on the left a bit for me.
It’s fun to imagine that I could be so influential for the sake of a photograph, but no, I won’t ask.
