Hi everyone, Would you like to participate in the Weekly Photo Challenge? Just take a photo that is your interpretation of the theme and post it in this thread. - Your photo(s) should be your own, i.e., they should not have been taken by someone else. - Photoshopping is allowed but should be kept to the basics only rather than a total transformation. - Grab your camera, experiment, and, most of all, have fun. NOTE
This week's theme was suggested by tonyw . (Thanks, Tony!) This is what this theme is all about in his own words.
- While looking down at it.
- At eye level with it.
- Etc., etc. |

A few years ago I had an assignment to take pictures at a dog or cat's eye level. When I saw this topic, I decided I would once again take a picture from that viewpoint. Image was converted to B/W in NIK SE 2  |

Both of the above posts are excellent. I'm struggling a bit with this one. I've taken photos over the years from just about every angle imaginable, so finding something that I feel is different is challenging me. I'll keep looking though...

After posting above, I went for a drive, and decided that this fits the topic in a different way. A cornfield, in a way that I have never seen one photographed, after harvest and before spring planting.  |

That's really strange Rick. I too was driving past a combined corn field this afternoon and had exactly the same thought and got the camera out. It was a gloomy day so when I came to process the result I decided to go black and white.  Tony |

Around here they are mostly dryland corn, planted in sandy soil with no irrigation, wholly dependent on what little falls from the sky. On a good year, that's 2 ears per stalk. Gloomy flat sky here too, so I cropped it more panoramic to eliminate that. |

I don't remember having ever seen a cornfield shot from this viewpoint. Beautiful image! |

Your choice of B&W was perfect for such a gloomy day. |
