POV: Techniques
Do you like this story?
Here's another way of changing a photographer's point of view. I suggested in an earlier post that photographers had to vary their angles, and one way was to photograph from a low viewpoint. Here, I chose to photograph the Cambodian doan chi from above. Yes, being 6'3" tall does give me a certain advantage.
I wouldn't recommend that you do the same before gaining your subject's trust, and ask permission first. In this case, I conveyed my intention to the nun-widow with sign-language, and she never exhibited any reaction to my towering above her and so close. She probably thought I was photographing something in the distance.
