Today is a technical challenge. It should be an easy one!
We are going to use our phones and do a comparison. You've heard of "ant's eye view?" We are going to accomplish this two ways. First, set your phone at ground level and take a photo of your subject. Next, turn your phone upside down at the same spot and take the photo again. Look at the difference! There may be times where you really want that ground view and turning your phone around get's the camera closer to the ground. Have fun and don't overthink it!
