Weekly Photo Challenge-Unusual POV (Point of view)

10 Sep

This week’s challenge is about a photo having an unusual point of view.  A POV in photography is described as:

“Point of view in photography simply means the position from which the camera sees the scene.”

The photo I chose doesn’t necessarily have an unusual position, but an unusual focus.  The subject is the frog but the secondary subject, my good friend Astrid, is almost equally important to this photo in a different way.  I wanted the focus to be on the frog but have her also be a presence…otherwise I just would have zoomed in on the frog.  In this case, I wanted the background of her holding and looking at the little fella to play an indirect role in the overall photo.  Creative, huh?  I know. Sometimes I get all artsy like that.
