"Be Different"

Weekly Informal Challenge number 127 is "Be Different"

I usually use just the viewfinder & not the LED screen.
When shooting stage shots, I try to avoid people blocking the stage. So camera almost on ground & viewing the articulating screen shot this.
I also try to avoid amputating part of a foot or hand and don't usually cut off top of bodies.
I found leaving more foreground seem to have more impact than cropping under the feet.

Doing this seemed to break the attitude that I must almost always use the viewfinder. Never used the screen as much as I did today.

The low POV, in my opinion, makes for a much more interesting picture .... Very well done, Flo!

You really did something different for you and it worked out well. I love the low point of view and leg in the foreground.
