From the Bottom Up - John Hartig - Bog

The usual position for taking photos by most people is straight ahead, maybe with a little crouch. Most people just point and shoot. The best they can do is imagine what a picture might look like framed like a painting.
But what about with a little effort, you might take a picture of a flower from the bottom up? Lying down, or kneeling? Pointing upwards, so you catch a slice of the blue sky. How about the low perspective?
Photographer, John Hartig, includes samples of his photos which were taken with that orientation in mind, from the bottom up, especially of his flowers. There are some interesting and noteworthy results which he is proud of.
"From the Bottom Up" is one of John's Photobook Series. John Hartig is a Canadian scenery photographer, who is known for the orientation, bright colours and paint worthy framing in his pictures. John's photos have been used by several painters to whom he has given permission to copy. John feels that art should be shared and passed on for others to emulate. Novice or professional, enjoy the tour of his photos!
