FMTSO: From the hip

This week's task is to take photos  from the hip. Walk through a store or park or main street with the camera on the hip, shooting away! I took the camera to the nearby park a few days ago with the intention of looking for butterfly and insects at the same time thinking of this week's theme. Some of the photos taken at the hip didn't come out right and got deleted. I'm sharing those that I like...

 

I love the way the shadow criss-crossing on the ground.

Looking up from the hip...

just me and my shadow...

It's along way down towards the main road...

turn around and look behind me...

An overhead pedestrian crossing over a busy highway, just behind my apartment. Looks like the bridge is slanting sideway...
