WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK: Part 179 - Unusual Perspective

[joayne]

Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This week the theme is "UNUSUAL PERSPECTIVE". As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for!


Here are the rules:

1. Shots need to be taken between sunrise Monday and sunset the following Sunday. Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives. Snap shots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!

2. Post your shots at any time during the week.

3. Post a maximum of two shots if you're uploading them to POTN (i.e., attaching them). You can post more than two if you're linking to shots that are not hosted by POTN (i.e.,embedding them), but keep within POTN rules. Also keep within POTN rules about size. A copy of the size rules can be found here: IMAGE POSTING RULES (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=194511)

An index to previous weeks can be found here: POTN WORLDWIDE PHOTO DAY INDEX (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=170603)

That's it! Have fun!

I think I have change for that!




I love those bills and the looks on people's faces when presented with one! My local recycling center gives out all sorts of not regularly used monies in exchange for recycling (of course!).

Set the camera on a shelf and use the self-timer?

Hey Trevor.. it's an unusual perspective.! Looks a bit of a curve to it.. :)

Ok, I'll just put on my thinking cap and start the new thread with my own thoughts and suggestions! :rolleyes:

The problem...... sometimes I come up with ideas and have a hard time coming up with a photo :confused:

[Skrim17]

Find the following things in your town:

1. something historic

2. a candid

3. main street

or something like that
