[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A view from the ground up of some of the cluster of banners which greets visitors at the entrance to the lakefront park in Ouchy. The colorful designs and patterns on these banners appear to have been created by school children.

I may have looked a bit silly to the tourists walking around me as I lay on my back looking up through my camera for this shot, but I'm certain I looked even more laughable when I got up and walked around for the rest of the day with someone's discarded chewing gum sticking to my back. We must sacrifice for our art.

Interesting pov Sandy + a nice quality of image, good work for me.

Iso.

creative idea for POV.all banners create negative space that made interesting composition.It would be perfect if there's a plane fly to center that all banners point:)

Hi Sandy,
a great shot, really artistic. Colours are great. I love the contrast of those colourful banners against the deep blue sky.
Thanks for sharing.
And thanks for your sacrifice.

Well I'm telling you, your sacrifice wasn't in vain! Fantastic pov here, and the colored flags, coming into the image like spears, are giving it just the right touch! That blue sky is endless, seen from your shot! Congrats again,
Diana
