Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPperspective
This weekend, the goal is to take photos and videos from a different point of view, as in this featured photo by Mao May (@maomay__). Here are some tips to get you started:
Capture a familiar subject or scene from an unexpected angle. Get up close and let a face cover the entire frame, or make a puppy look large by shooting from ground-level as she stares down. Find a high vantage point to show the wider context of a festival scene or bustling market.
Use geometry to your advantage. Look for graphic lines — in bridges or telephone wires — that converge to a vanishing point in your composition. Find a new way to capture patterns in everyday places, like the wheels of bicycles lined up in a rack, or symmetrical bricks in an unruly garden.
Play an eye trick. Defy gravity with simple editing, like rotating the frame. Recruit a friend to make a well-timed leap, that, when rotated, looks like they’re flying through air. Or turn a dandelion into a human-size parasol by playing with scale and distance.
