In this picture there are two major things that it an example of "seeing the usual in an unusual way," the first being the point of view. The photographer was low to the ground and looking up. The second thing that's important is the lens chosen. The artist used a fish-eye lens to get more in the shot while being closer and to distort the trees.
















I chose this because the artist could only achieve this effect of glassy water and blurred clouds by leaving the shutter open for a long time. Also the artist chose to include the ice in the foreground instead of getting rid of it.
