From “The Daily Post @ WordPress”:

“YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT

“Now remember — you need not use a phone to participate in this challenge or any other challenge we share here at the Daily Post. You can use any camera you prefer.

 

“Shoot from the hip: Grab your phone or your camera and experiment with NOT framing shots. xxx keep pressing that shutter button while holding the camera at hip level. Find anything surprising in those shots that you may have missed from shooting at eye level?

“Shoot from the heel: How low can you go? Now that you’ve taken a few shots from the hip, get even lower. xxx Hold the camera as low as you can and snap away. You’ll be amazed at how your perspective shifts after you’ve taken a few shots from your shoelaces.

“Share your favorite perspective: Let’s open it up — as a photographer, what’s your favorite perspective to shoot from? xxx”

     Here’s the response of this blog to the “mission order”:

“Come o’er the eastern hills, and let our winds
 Kiss thy perfumed garments; let us taste
 Thy morn and evening breath; scatter thy pearls
 Upon our love-sick land that mourns for thee …”

                                      -William Blake

Kiss. There are a lot of ways to capture a kiss, between two people – lovers, family, friends; two animals, or even just the sending or receiving of a kiss. I captured this kiss between two storks in Morocco. I felt lucky to have captured this moment.”  (text and WordPress photo by Sara Rosso)
