Up High

January 17, 2012

Two things come to mind in these pictures.

  1. Taking pictures from up high is interesting.
  2. Taking pictures of people feels a bit creepy to me.

I think I'll only comment on the first one today. The second I'll save for later.

I haven't gotten to take pictures from up high in an urban (or really, an industrial) setting before. As usual, I struggle with the chaos of these settings, though I usually find something that I would like to make a picture out of. Being up high makes it for a different perspective. I usually want a longer lens, but wide offers some interesting ideas too.

And now the people shot:
