Photographing flowers from below

Everyone takes photos of flowers from above, or they take a long shot so there is some sort of perspective, but I thought I would take a worms eye view of some flowers... do worms have eyes?

Well first of all you can never frame the picture properly, and you never know what kind of picture you are going to get since you can not look at the LCD to see what you are aiming at.

But the one good thing is that on bright days you get a wonderful blue background from the sky. The petals of the flowers also take on a transluscent quality that you would not see if you were shooting downwards.
