Travel photography tips: Shoot from the side
Professional photographer Steve Davey presents his travel photography tips. In this tip, find out how to shoot from the side to create a strong diagonal
Don't just shoot everything standing in front of your subject. Apart from giving a rather dull perspective, it means you'll have to shoot from a distance to fit everything in. If you shoot from a side angle, then you'll be able to cram a wider subject (like this line of elephants) into your picture, as well as creating a strong diagonal. Diagonals are a great way of leading the viewer's eye into the picture and making your pictures appear more dynamic.
