6 Get low with flowers
Ensure you get the best angle of view to shoot eye-catching spring daffodils
Most of the time, we look at the world around us from eye level, but a perspective that’s five to six feet above ground is rarely the most dynamic, because that’s how everyone else sees the world. To reveal a fresh angle on a subject, it pays to think differently, and with flowers. That usually means getting low.
From a ground-level camera position, flowers will instantly become more dominant in the frame, and you are also changing their relationship with whatever is in the background.
To shoot low, use your vari-angle LCD screen, if your camera has one. If it doesn’t then lying prone on a groundsheet is the next best thing – but not as comfortable!
