In other words, can you relate to the subject or the situation? Bright sun can create unattractive deep facial shadows. Eliminate the shadows by using your flash to lighten the face. -THE- ELEMENT Drama of CAMERA ANGLE Something that creates an instant emotional impact to the viewer. A tragedy, struggle, triumph or happiness. - BE- Creative Look up, down and vary your position to capture a unique perspective. Try different lens too!
