Recently we were doing some feature work up in Scotland just outside Loch Lomond. When we took the opportunity to go to the Loch and take some images. We thought we would use this to show how shooting at different angles can improve your pictures.
Armed with a Hassleblad H4D and a 35-90mm lens, which takes some getting use to after using a Nikon for so long.
Below you so a picture of of a piece of rope leading in to the water. The shot is taken from the same angle that we see thing from everyday 5'10" (roughly), this doesn't make for a very interesting picture. Taken at ISO 100, f5.6 and 1/180th
Now we have changed the angle of view to a really low vantage point you can see that the picture looks more interesting. Taken at ISO 100, f8 1/60th on 50mm
Just for one last adjustment we have now zoomed into 90mm, still using the same exposure settings but the zooming has reduced the depth of field. The rope was still position as a leading line through the image. We then turned black and white, added some contrast and then added a light layer of Topaz Detail.
Please let us know what you think.
