A Matter of Perspective: Architecture Photographed from Different Angles

We see buildings around us every day as part of our day-to-day lives, but we rarely look at them from different angles. Photographers do, and they bring us shots of architecture from very different perspectives. One of the most photographed perspectives is looking upwards, again, something we rarely do. Look at the people walking along the street, and you will see few of them looking up, in fact, the majority will be looking down!

Sometimes a certain perspective will give a ‘what is this?’ shot, where it doesn’t even look like a building.
