    You always need to use your creative cap :P

    Already got an idea about the next theme as well. Been wanting to do it for a while, something in the likes of a frog perspective or something.

    Well, you'll be happy to know that I've had several ideas now. I just have to choose one :P

    Well, I just translated it literally from the Dutch word so don't really know if it's called like that in English ^^
    But by frog perspective I mean that you take the picture below the normal height of when you take a picture. So that the focals shift position and come above the horizon of the picture.

    so it's basically the opposite of bird's view if that makes it any more obvious :P

    ^I like that idea.

    When I heard frog perspective I thought you thought you literally meant a picture taken in a frog's point of view.

    Seriously I might have to go down to Southern Utah to get any flowers in February. Even then it will probably be a cactus. (expensive competition)

    SP, folks 'round these parts call that there perspective "worm's eye". I had to study me some perspectives last term an' memorize 'em fer a test, so's I'm perdy sher that's it.

    A little higher but still low is, oddly enough, known as low angle :)

    Didn't even realize you're not from America or the UK... huh. So you speak dutchese? I'm forever ruined: I call Belguim "Belgique" in my head. I never heard of it until I took French for some reason, so that might explain it.
