5 Ways A Low Angle Will Improve Your Photos


Out of Focus—On Purpose
F-stop matters somewhat less than is generally taught.
Closeness to subject matters a lot.
Relative subject distance matters a lot, too.
Get lower to the ground.

Get a longer lens.
Buy a tilt-and-shift lens and use it wrong.
Buy a Lensbaby.
Just reach for the "blur" brush in Photoshop.
