Part 1: Perspectives

This practice of perspectives was fascinating as I used the same two objects over and over but was able to manipulate it very differently based on mostly where I stood or crouched. Within a high angle, the object seemed to be smaller and modest in comparison to actuality if you consumed the whole object head on within the frame. On the other hand, with a low angle, the object seemed to appear larger than reality, especially when zooming in closer to the object rather than zoomed out. This angle of view gives a feeling of power to the object as it feels it is somewhat towering over you as it is effected through the low angle technique. I also believe that close perspective is more fulfilling than distancing yourself away from the object as it is more appealing to the eye when it is focused on just the object itself. In addition to that statement, it is best to not create a distraction by backgrounds or other specimens surrounding it. All in all, various views of a subject are helpful within photography to capture what you want the main focus of an image to consist of and create boundaries that are appealing to the viewers.
