A different perspective. - a photo on Flickriver

            There are rules when it comes to composition and typical everyday photos. However, if you start to explore and start seeing things from different angles and new perspectives - well who knows what you might see.

 When you shoot from below a subject, you can make the viewer feel as though the subject is in control of a situation. The simple act of looking up at a subject can impart a feeling of smallness, loss of control or a sense that the subject (or object) is unobtainable.

This has been used in real-world situations throughout history. For example, thrones are set higher than other chairs, judges sit on a podium and executive desks are just a bit taller than normal desks.

A severely low shooting angle can also give the illusion of being inside the frame of the photograph.
