Shooting Grand Ceilings – Cathedrals, Tombs, and Palaces

Also, it is preferable the horizon line is closer to the one-third level rather than at the exact middle of the frame. - Shooting Flowing Water - At Dawn, Dusk, and Day - Travelure ©

Shooting Architecture without Distortion Part-1
The only way to shoot any structure distortion-free is to keep the camera parallel to the ground. For that, you need a vantage that brings you up midway to the height of the building. But the ground realities do not always allow us to keep the camera parallel. - Shooting Architecture without Distortion Part-1 - Travelure ©
Capturing speed in a still image – Bareback Rider, Kila Raipur
