I really like the second and third shots.
Here's a picture I was working on last night - not exactly on my belly in the dirt, but I plan to drop off the grid and do that for the next few days :D

Welcome to Day 159 :) Today we are going for the Postcard Look. This needs a bit of explaining. Most things that we want to photograph .. especially if it's a beautiful
or iconic building... are difficult because the best viewpoint is also the one that reveals crowds of tourists, street signs, or other unsightly elements. We will have to
examine every angle .. and with a little bit of luck we will find one that has a lot of greenery as well.. and find the vantage point ... probably low to the ground that
will allow us to hide the vehicles and other things from view. Of course there is always post processing for those of us who won't get on the ground to get the photo. :)
I personally am not opposed to laying in the dirt to get the shot LOL.. but that's me. Perhaps experiment with zoom to get beyond the other stuff. The goal here is to
create images that are memorable.. and worthy of a postcard to send home. For my part I chose to photograph some of the many buildings that are on the historic register here in Tucson. Here are a few examples to get us started... I look forward to seeing what y'all come up with.

Did an overnight there too, right next to the NO OVERNIGHT PARKING sign LOL.
Talk about sunrises!
Did you ever see the movie, Sunrise at Campobello? It focused on F.D. Roosevelt ,whose family had a summer home on Campobello Island. That summer home is now a tourist spot on the island.
No, in fact I didn't know that they did one.
