We&#8217;re so used to centering all our subjects in our field of vision, for example, and we&#8217;re used to the idea that we only need to take a glance at something in order to understand it&#8217;s value. It&#8217;s hard to &#8216;get off our high horse&#8217; and see something we don&#8217;t usually see, or discomforts us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, about this photo, it&#8217;s one I took many months ago on the Freestyle Academy Europe Trip to the UK, and it was taken from the high view of a castle that had a bridge and a port, and also wide green fields and a little town and even a train in its view. I usually don&#8217;t take a lot of high-angle photos because I find them to be really difficult since there are so many visual elements at once, and I find myself wishing I could just suspend myself in the air to take the right picture. But I&#8217;m really proud of this one, I really like the symmetry of the bridge and how it leads your eye to the center, where the little birds are. This photo allows you to perceive a tucked-away home, a life that maybe not many people passing through the bottom know is there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When trying to improve one&#8217;s photography, it&#8217;s hard to get out of your own &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1012,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1000","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-composition"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1000","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1000"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1000\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1023,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1000\/revisions\/1023"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1012"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1000"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1000"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~SofiaD\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1000"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
