08 Jun 07 - Thanks to everyone who've joined this new group!

Do have a look through your (entirely excellent) photos and submit examples of shots taken from the ground up. And of course, go forth and take photographs from this unique perspective!

Plus: encourage others to do so - and invite them to join!

About The World Is My Tripod

This is a group exclusively for straight-up photographs.

All shots should ideally be taken from the ground (or an object on the ground, including you), looking up.

You can use a timer on your camera, place on the ground and step back. You can lie on your back and snap away. But the idea of this group is to collect together photos from this perspective.

Oh, and pictures don't have to be of ceilings, buildings or trees...

Related Groups:
up above my head - shots taken straight up above the photographer
tall (look up) - tall things. things you have to look up to see
from BELOW - as straight up as possible


Have fun, and don't trip over any photographers out there...
