Angles and Views
Saturday 10 June
Market Square Victoria - 10am - 2 Hours
Angles and Point of View in photography refer to the way in which the photographer positions the camera in relation to the subject to capture an image. The angle and view can greatly impact the composition, mood, and message of the photograph.
In this session we'll be looking at how we can challenge ourselves to find strong compositions using new viewpoints and perspectives when out with our camera, and how different angles can tell different photographic stories.
