This week’s You Capture was all about getting down low … so I took it literally and shot from the ground.
Emma splashing at the end of a super fun water slide …
Canon 50D • 85mm • ISO 250 • f2.2 • shutter speed: 1/1250
sprinklers sprinkling the heat-dried grass …
Canon 50D • 85mm • ISO 250 • f1.8 • shutter speed: 1/4000 • manual focus
momma feet and toes wrinkling from too much time in the pool …
Canon 50D • 85mm • ISO 400 • f1.8 • shutter speed: 1/250
little feet scooting in the late evening sun …
Canon 50D • 85mm • ISO 100 • f2.5 • shutter speed: 1/8000
and our current “middle child” snoozing in the shade.

Okay, so that last one wasn’t really shot from a down low perspective, but I was squatting. And squatting while almost 6 months pregnant is kind of a big deal.
So how low can you go?
