CLA Building, originally uploaded by smckittr.

One thing I’ve noticed about my shots is that I like to get down to eye level with the subject. Most of my shots tend to be low to the ground in relation to the subject. For example, the picture featured here could have been taken from the nearby library. However, I think that looking at the building from a lower angle presents a more dramatic shot.

With model trains I like to try to get down to the level that a model person would be looking at them.

It would seem that, at least in many cases, being lower relative to an object will lend more drama to the shot.
