Viewing the same scene from above, eye level and below will change what you see and reveal about your subject. Next, use the viewfinder to frame different views from a variety of distances away from your subject. This will help you determine which details to include and which to exclude from your scene, and it will add variety to your compositions. Observe the qualities of light and shadow within the view. Outside, take note of the time of day and how it affects the light and shadows.
Light reveals details and often contributes to the mood or feeling of the work.
