​The choice of Angle in photography creation

The shooting direction is usually divided into: front Angle, oblique Angle, side Angle, reverse Angle and back Angle.

1. Positive Angle

The front Angle refers to the shooting position with a block Angle to the front of the subject, which mainly represents the typical image of the front of an object. For example, architecture, whether ancient or modern in the design pay attention to the front style and decoration, such as Beijing tiananmen Square and the exhibition hall, museum, etc. A positive Angle shows the true color of the image. A good example is the appearance of a person. A positive image is more characteristic of a person's appearance. The composition from a positive Angle is mainly to show that the objects are mostly located on the dividing line in the center of the picture, which is usually a symmetrical structure. Generally speaking, the composition from a positive Angle is more dignified and stable.

When the deviation from the positive and side Angle is small, the image of the positive side usually does not change much. You can choose the appropriate shooting position within the range of the positive and side angles, which can not only show the image characteristics of the object, but also have rich and varied changes of the object image, often receiving vivid effects.

The side Angle is more flexible than the front Angle, and some changes can be made to the left and right sides of the side perpendicularity, so as to get the best shooting position of the object's side image.
