What's Outside Your Window?

Most people in the world have a window but the world outside that window varies dramatically from country to country. Even the view from two different windows in the same street can be completely different. Gardens contain different mysteries and treasures. If you live in appartments, your view might stretch for
many kilometres or you may have a view of a brick wall and a spiders web. But whatever you can see, explore it in more detail. Really look, listen, feel, analyse and wonder. Then create and share your own particular view!
