Aerial Photography Part 1Actually, it's an old photographers trick called "the rule of thirds". According to the rule, an image will look it's best when the subject and other eyecatching items are along a set of lines across the images vertically and horizontally at one third. Below is one of our aerial photographs of the Riveira Golf Course. The subject, being the building, is placed one third from the bottom. The horizon, the other prominent feature, is placed one third from the top. The angle is also important. A shot taken from the front, will appear very flat and ugly with very little depth. Taken at an angle, the resulting shot gives depth and a pleasing appearance, as well as showing the front, side and roof or balconies.
Why digital?
