bruises and bandaids »

How do things look to you? What’s your perspective? Does life and whatever it is you photograph look the same every day? Does the picture you just shot look the same as your last picture? Well then…change something. Change your perspective. Are you standing up? Well, then get down on your knees, or better yet, your belly. Here’s a shot taken where I’m down on my knees or low to the ground somehow.

During this shot, I’m right above the baby, maybe on my tip toes…

Get down and see the world from their perspective…

And what about the sun? Where is the sun? Is it shining on your subject? What about having the sun behind your subject?

Change things up a bit. Don’t always look at things the same way every day or every time you pick up your camera. Sit down, lay down, stand up, get up on a chair, do something…to change your perspective. :)
