When we take photos, it is always difficult to choose the photography viewpoint, because the viewpoint affects the function of our photography. Many times, we are full of regret that the viewpoint can not take very good photos because of the deviation of the viewpoint. So, how to choose the viewpoint of photography?

In fact, the viewpoint of taking photos can not only play an important role in expressing the content of photography, but also play an indispensable role in forming a beautiful composition. It can be said that the photos taken vary greatly from different photography viewpoints. Changing the viewpoint can directly affect the picture structure. For example, we take three photos at the same distance, at the same height and with the same focal length, using elevation, flat angle and depression angle. Although the front and rear scenes have not changed, the contents contained in the picture are different. Therefore, how to choose the viewpoint of photography is still more learned. The following is about the application of several viewpoints of looking up, looking down and looking down.

In photography, we choose the perspective we look up at.

Look up, that is, when shooting, the position of the camera is higher than the object and shoot from top to bottom. It is characterized by a wide field of vision, large visibility and complete scene, which can take a panoramic view of the overall situation. This method is mostly used to photograph large situations, such as large-scale grain abundance, grasslands and flocks of livestock, transportation hubs, water surfaces, etc. If the depression angle is large, although there is no broad situation, photography also plays a unique role in special subjects.

In photography, we choose a head up perspective.

Head up, that is, the camera and the subject are roughly on a horizontal line. This viewpoint is close to the habitual image of the human eye. Head up composition is characterized by good perspective and is generally not easy to deform. This method is easy, convenient and does not need any additional equipment, but the photos taken rarely change and are not novel. Novice photographers are accustomed to taking photos from a head up viewpoint.

In photography, we choose the perspective from which we look down.

Looking down, it is taken from bottom to top. The camera is lower than the subject, and the photo horizon is lower. The characteristic of elevation photography is that it can make the scene magnificent and huge. Low viewpoint photography can also abandon the messy set to make the picture concise and the main body prominent. Select the high and low viewpoints together, and also select the horizontal viewpoint of the scene.
