Lesson

ph2-1. Note the Horizon

​In many of the pictures that you take, you’re going to have a horizon.

Even if it’s not an actual horizon, a line often cuts your picture. 

Make this part of your image and think about other options.

You can raise the camera up and tilt it down so the horizons at neck level.

Lowering the camera and the horizon makes foreground subjects look huge.
​

Practice

ph2-1. Note the horizon

Take three pictures of yourself or someone else with the horizon in different positions.

1. Place the horizon at shoulder level
2. Place the horizon at waist level
3. Place the horizon at knee level

Study your results and note what you learned.
