A few days ago, the peak of the flowering of dandelions began in our region. All the fields look like yellow carpets. In the city, too, there are a lot of them and while the weather was sunny, I managed to photograph them. I hastened to photograph them not because dandelions quickly fade, but because the communal services quickly mow down them.
I want to show you how to use the dandelion foreground and how different shooting points differ from each other.
I'll start with pictures of Komsomolsky Square. Panorama of 3 vertical frames. The usual point of shooting, slightly crouched.
And here I lay down on the grass and also shot a panorama of 3 vertical frames.
The angle changed radically. For a perfect photo, you could use a combined focus, for dandelions and for the church separately. But this requires a tripod.
The same photo, only b&w.
The second example: the Soviet avenue in Veliky Ustyug. Ordinary flower bed and usual foreshortening.
If you sit down harder, it turns out much more voluminous.
And if you lie down again?
I think you understood the essence of this. A simple change of the survey point can give us an interesting view, more voluminous and not so boring.
All successful perspectives! Improvise and experiment!
