Winter, you must be trying to get serious. I will say, of course you have to crawl around on your hands and knees, as you are down under!
I will add that most that are new to photography, naturally see the world as they have been used to seeing it. Our brains are programmed to see at eye level. And we are used to seeing our normal world, well, normal. That is to say, trees grow up, water does not flow uphill and the sky is a certain color.
Therefor when we see a different camera angle, we immediately perceive it to be different, and not business as usuall.
Perhaps a foto of a small dog, taken from our usuall point of view, looks normal. But with the camera, below the dog, more as the dog sees us, looks immediately different, and will often convey a lot more interest from the viewer. A foto from a birds eye view or a Dutch tilt(purposely tilting the camera, will have a similar reaction.
It's a high skill that must be learned, and even often by more advanced photographers as well.
Anyway Winter, good post.
