What does the world look like from below? Have you ever wondered what looks like things seen from the eyes of an ant, beetle or cockroach. In this week's challenge we intend to answer the question with a photo. You join?
HOW DOES IT WORK? (REMINDER)
Every week I will propose a new challenge, it is a subject that you will have to capture in a photograph and upload it to the Facebook page of the blog, putting in the description the key word that I will indicate for each topic. The themes will be varied, from portraits to Macro photography, through landscapes, black and white photography, or babies. The topics will be proposed on Saturdays, so that you have all the weekend to work them. You will have the deadline to upload your photo one week (one photo per participant), until Friday of the following week. On Friday or Saturday I will update the article with the photo that has captivated me the most and propose a new theme, and so on ...WEEKLY CHALLENGE 36: ANT VIEW
The perspective is one of the most underused photographic resources that I see every day in many photos that I observe on the Internet. We become obsessed with the subject, the background, the depth of field, the shooting speed or even the target, and we completely forget about a powerful element of composition that we have within our reach but which we rarely use: that of shooting from a different and unusual angle. Ant sight is one of these angles little explored by many photography enthusiasts. In the exercise of this week I would like you to duck to the ground, to not worry about staining your clothes, and to focus on capturing a good photograph at ground level, in sight of an ant or cockroach. As usual, to participate in this week's challenge, upload your photo to the Facebook wall of the Photographer's Blog : In the description of the photo please mention the keyword “Challenge Ant” followed by a title of your choice.ALTERNATIVE MEANS TO PARTICIPATE
For those who are not from Facebook I have enabled new social networks to participate.- Flickr: accessing the Group Mural of the Photographer's Blog and uploading the photo directly. Give your photo a title and be sure to mention "Ant Challenge" in it.

UPGRADE
What would an ant see if he raised his head? Buaaaa. What I wouldn't see: daisies, poppies, pets, children playing in the fields or a motorcycle race track. Here is a sample of what your cameras have captured this week while posing as ants: I loved the snapshot of Juan Ignacio Iormetti, Treading the Sky. An exceptional composition in which your eyes automatically go to the sky through the body of the subject. Vignetting always helps focus the viewer's attention towards the center of the frame. Finally, have you tried to look at this picture by turning it upside down?
