The Day Of The Video
So, as I mentioned before, in Street Talk Episode #08 I talk about “Different POVs in Street Photography”. The day of the recording I visited the Fortezza fortress again here in Rethymno and found a nice spot with a view to discuss with your about the Points Of View in Street Photography. During the view I mention the following POVs:
- Rat’s Eye View
- Bird’s Eye View
- Dog’s Eye View and
- Tall man’s Eye View

Conclusion
Unless you have been shooting for a while and you have already tried out the different POVs I mention above and in the video, you should get some new ideas about making street photos once you have seen this video. It is very common for all of us to get zoned in to using the camera from the standard normal eye level point of view, but we need to freshen our portfolio up by keeping in mind that there are other POVs and angles that we can shoot from in order to get unique, uncommon results that will look interesting and intriguing. So, next to you are out there with your camera, mix it up, take photos you haven’t tried to take before and enjoy yourself.
Stay Sharp & Keep Shooting!
