Sometimes it's all just a matter of how you look at something. In photography, perspective is an angle or a view in which you crop and take your photograph. Certain types of perspectives will sometimes create an optical illusion making objects seem bigger, longer or defying the eye. If you stand in front of a tall building and photograph it the building in the photo will appear larger at the bottom and smaller at the top. Certain cropping can give a photo a look of infinity, like it goes on and on forever.

For this challenge we'll be shooting perspectives. Choose your subject carefully and then shoot it from many different angles or views. Lay down on the ground, or get up on a ladder...find a new way to look at a subject and then shoot it from that angle.

If you have any questions please feel free to post them or email me. I'm here to help.*

You have from*Friday Mar. 18th*to*Thursday Apr. 1st*to shoot your photos for this theme. Below are some examples to get the creative juices flowing. Good luck and I look forward to seeing everyones photos!

Great idea - in the moment I always forget to experiment with perspective and it can be so dramatic. Fun challenge!
