    This actually is pretty funny taken in the context of your title for the shot. Great face for doing the peering over. :D

    Thanks, DaddyO.
    The lady was a friend and I asked her to stand on the other side of the dune with only her head showing. I backed away and shot at about 210mm (film) for the 2-dimensional, compressed look.

    Pretty nice return with the method used. Since you mention film... I gotta
    ask, about when was the picture taken? Curious, curious. :D

    I was pondering on this, that is, if a ball of some sort was down in front
    somewheres. Maybe value added?

    This was taken in the 1970s among the lengthy sand dunes near Reedsport, Oregon Coast.
    The lady and I were just walking through the dunes. The margins where ocean, sand and coastal forest meet are always fascinating.
    No ball or anything, although later a young guy in his Jeep- showing off to his girlfriend- blasted by and zoomed up a dune. We knew the other side of the dune would be very steep and that he would be in trouble, so we ran to the top. Sure enough, he had flipped and rolled. Loose stuff was scattered everywhere, but the two seemed physically okay. His innate stupidity was untreatable, so we walked away.
