  • Birds eye view is usually used for floor plans, blueprints, and maps

Worms Eye View

  • Picture is taken from below the object while looking up.
  • It can make an object look larger and more dominant.
Eye Level

       This picture was taken from worms eye view. The photographer pointed the camera up while standing at the bottom of the tower. The perspective makes the tower look larger.
        This picture was taken with with a dutch tilt. The photo was taken by by tilting the camera in line with the crease of the bench. The perspective makes the viewers head tilt to look at the object the right way.
       The photo was taken form the worms eye view position. To take the photo I laid on the ground and pointed the camera up towards Frankie. The angle of the photo makes Frankie look larger and more dominant. 
        This photo represents the birds eye view camera angle. This photo is of a wire sculpture located in the library. The angle of the photo gives the viewer a different perspective on the sculpture. 
       This is a straight on or eye level picture of another sculpture located in the library. To take the picture I moved the camera until the light wasn't reflecting of the mirrored surface. The straight on view makes the the picture look like its real size.
       This is a tilted picture of the hanging lights over the library desk. I took the picture by holding the camera at a straight on position, i then tilted the camera and took the picture. The angle of the photo makes the viewers head tilt with the picture.

The picture above is an example of this because, the white color of the space around the fire alarm, makes the red of the alarms to catch the viewers attention.

PENGUIN        In the foreground of our box, you will see a single penguin next to a group of four other penguins.  In the middle ground of our box, you will see a polar bear to the right of the group of penguins, and an airplane that is hanging from the top of the box with fishing line.  In the background of our box, you will see two hot air balloons a large group of penguins and a man riding a horse.  One thing I would change about our box would be the fore ground because I the pictures we used weren't in the best place. Our strongest area of our box is the original background and the sky because they are the things that look the best.

History of Photography

The First Camera was important because the art has been around since the 5th century. but didn't come alive until the 11th century when a Iraqi scientist created the camera obscura, which didn't actually take pictures, but projected an image onto another surface. The First Permanent Images (Daguerreotype, Emulsion Plates, Dry Plates)  were important because it was the first time time pictures could be captured for more than a few seconds. Some types of processes actually lead to the advancement of cameras and allowed them to be smaller and faster.  Camera For Everyone  was important because George Eastman made camera film in the form of a roll. that allowed cameras to be small enough to be handheld. the film size also allowed for most people to be able to afford a camera.
