SSC 27 Oct 2018 - Happy Anniversary

Explored! Thank you very much :-)

SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE
27 OCTOBER 2018
"EVERYONE CAN CHOOSE SOMETHING THEY'VE LEARNED HERE IN SSC AND TAKE A PHOTO USING THIS TECHNIQUE. YOU CAN EXPLAIN WHY YOU LIKE USING THE TECHNIQUE".

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, EVERYONE :-)

Despite the best intentions I often take photos with the camera at 6 feet off the ground looking straight ahead :-)

The last challenge (Looking Up) made me stop and think about my photography a bit more. I have started to spend more time studying the scene/subject before pressing the shutter. And, I've been taking quite a few shots looking up!

I got a stiff neck taking this shot and, in addition, I tried to include a few diagonal lines :-)

Changer sa façon de regarder les choses nous donne de nouvelles opportunités de faire de photos inhabituelles.

Getting a stiff neck has its rewards, especially with autumn colours! Excellent use of the diagonal.

What a beautiful tree and it's great that you photographed it from this angle. Against the clear sky, it really stands out.

Like your thinking Roger, sometimes it helps if you have an articulated LCD.
