USA great way for children to learn how to use different angles and perspectives in photography is to have them look through the view finder as if they were an ant. Keeping their cameras down low and looking at everything from a different position increases their ability to make more creative decisions in their compositions. We asked the children to make pictures looking up into the trees or through the grass. They moved around the playground looking for clever shots that an Ant might get, sometimes using the close up mode or even the self timer.
The children submitted some fantastic shots and really got enthusiastic about the topic. Take a look below at the pictures they made:
Edith used the close up mode on her camera to get this view of a feather on the ground.
Logan crouched down really low to achieve this shot using the close up mode on his camera.
Great close up of a flower centre by Elvis!
Ezra got really creative and photographed the underside of his shoe… Poor Ant!
Scarlett chose to photograph as though she was an ant climbing up the trunk of a tree!
