Photo Blog 44: Viewpoint

A sunset through the branches of a tree; 1/1600, f14, ISO 6400

For this week’s photo challenge, we were instructed to find different viewpoints in order to create different perspectives. Originally, I had planned on stooping down to my dog’s height in order to capture photos from her perspective. However, while I was roaming outside with her, the fiery sunset began to catch my eye and I started experimenting with that and my trees instead. I ended up capturing the sunset through the openings of a couple tree branches, which I think looks really cool. This could possibly be the perspective of a bug sitting on the branch! I also think the branches frame both the sunset and the entire photo really nicely.
