Most photos are taken at eye level of the standing person. Change your shooting position sometimes if you physically can - sit or squat down, lie on your front or back, get up high and look down, crane your neck and look up. You'll be amazed at the different perspectives and interesting images you'll get. Enjoy, and comment if you wish to. Or add your examples.

Yes I did Chinaman, I visited it when I was much younger, studied at Gwalior, not too far away from it. Great perspect because of the angle. Nicely done.

The articulated screen on the D5100 makes this possible for those of us who aren't as flexible as we used to be or don't want to roll around in the dirt.

Excellant series and advice Chinaman. This reminds me of a quote that I read that said something like "if you come home without dirt, grass stains or mud on your knees, butt and shoulders then you left the best shots behind!"

Thank you Thom. It is a big favourite of mine as well. It used to be a factory but what an unusual roof, if one can call it that. It is now a shopping centre and is in the centre of Melbourne, Australia.

That's why my next camera will have an articulate screen. Wonderfully exposed and composed, but a dirt spot is visible. Thank you for sharing.

I'm afraid my mum would have a lot to say about that! No wonder I'm still waiting to shoot my best shots! Thanks for looking.

Nice shots Chinaman,

You're right on. Camera angle changes how we see everything.

Please keep seeing and sharing.

Well, you did a terrific job for not knowing what you were doing. They are great shots! I especially like what you did with the statue.

Yes, I noticed the spot on the posted one also. Fixed it with Photoshop Elements and I have cleaned my sensor since then.
