Interesting shot, and has inspired me to start looking down!  I need to get over my fear of crawling on the ground.

I find that a macro lens really changes your perspective on shooting. You stop looking at grand landscapes and the little details start to pop out at you.

I love that.

 

When you see the small world we ignore ever day like that, it always fascinates me.

One of the many reasons why a macro should probably be my next acquisition!

This is what photography could do, something simple in our surrounding common to our naked eye, yet could be more appreciated and interesting when captured in the camera's lens and shared. Thanks.
