DSLR Speed Challenge #54- Ground Shot

[carianoff]

Ground Shot
Pretty simple, set camera on the ground, compose, shoot.
Let the limitations of the ground anchor the vertical movement of the camera,
just worry about controlling the horizontal. Think of this as a variation of ants eye view.
Other than that, the content and execution is up to you.
