A Different Perspective?

How about trying to shoot through a magnifying glass? Or perhaps a drinking glass side or even bottom? Look for some things that you might use to "alter" your perspective on things. Here I used a "fisheye" or very wide angle, but the most remarkable thing to me is that the background is really the ceiling in my classroom. Shake up that "point of view" and get a new perspective on your photographer's vision!

First day of Spring, so the Hawiian shirt comes out... let me know what you think below.

  1. That's a great idea. I wouldn't have thought of it. That really is a new way to look at photography.

  2. I like how your hand frames half of the picture and how the celling looks curved.

  3. I like how the banners on the ceiling come into play with the photo. The white background really helps, too.

  4. i love how you can play with something like lenses to make such cool effects, and being able to do similar things with everyday items like glasses, as you said, is awesome! :) it's also really cool how, although the background of the picture is curved, you aren't at all, and that looks really neat.

  5. I like the way the ceiling looks in this picture and how your hand frames the one half of the photo.

  6. This is a really interesting photograph! Like Sierra C. said, I think its very cool how the background seems to be arching away from you, while you still look perfectly normal. It makes the brain think! This is definitely a cool idea to try out. Thanks Charlie!
