Today we’re talking about perspective.

Perspective is the spatial connection between objects in a photo. This can mean a subject and a building, or just where the subject falls in the frame.  If you are photographing your dog, you might start out photographing them straight on. And you might get a nice photo, but if you change your perspective, you might get an amazing photo! Try stepping up onto a ladder and you could completely change the perspective of the photo and the impact that the photo has.

Changing the perspective can create an entirely new look at something that has been seen millions of times. That is one of the best parts about photography! Each person sees a situation in a different way, thus creating a different photograph. Next time you are taking a photo, consider changing your perspective and see how it can change the outcome for you!
