Using Camera Angles

Today, I took photos using the three camera angles from the syllabus. These consist of a high angle, low angle, and canted angle. 1) High angle This high angle conveys the idea that the subject has less power than I do. 2) Low angle This low angle conveys the idea that the subject is powerful or holds more power than I do. 3) Canted angle This canted angle suggests that the subject is disoriented.
