The view from the bottom line … looks quite simple, but try that by yourself … if you can!

Thank you for Mark of Excellence!!. I'm Felipe Muñoz from Santiago, Chile. Engineer in telecommunications and an amateur photographer. I continually walk the streets in my spare time. This photograph was taken in Santiago town on October 6, 2016 to a homeless asking for money on the street, I was close to him and saw the scene,i inmediately decided to take a photo so i measured the light and set the camera with ISO 640, f8, 1/500s, then calculate with the sight the distance and apply on the lens, i was put the camera about 40 cm from the floor without looking through the viewfinder, then i calculate the framing and shot, in the first instance the photograph had to be only with the man asking for money, but at the moment of shooting crossed all those people walking from one side to another, the result was an incredible photography for me. This photograph was made with a Leica M9 and 50mm summicron lens. Many thanks again and greetings to the I-SHOT-IT team!
