Here are a few high-angle shot photos from my archive. Because staying on top of things is often very conducive to impressive pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the high angle shot<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"On<\/a>
High angle shot photo of the town centre of Blois <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

 We often go to Blois in the Loire Valley. Almost each time I get there, I gad about town taking pictures with my tripod. This high-angle shot is one of the nicest views of the ancient city of Blois. I took it from the top<\/a> of the stairs behind Denis Papin<\/a>\u2019s back. Papin (22 August 1647 \u2013 26 August 1713) is celebrated in Blois (he was born nearby, a little further south) for having invented some of the principles leading to the harnessing of steam power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

About Blois and London<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Being a Protestant in 17th-century France and beyond until Napoleon put a stop to this nonsense must have been a challenge (here’s for those in need of a reminder<\/a>). Papin had to escape to Britain and Germany. He died in London. It has never ceased to amaze me how some people who were originally rejected for their ideas can become the object of jingoism. As an aside, I’m currently reading The Pillars of the Earth<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

High Angle Shot at Nationalism<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

One of the main characters at the beginning of the book is King Stephen, aka \u00c9tienne de Blois, a brief reminder of those days when the kings of Britain were from Norman and Angevin descent (and vice versa for certain areas of what later became France). Nationalists should always go back and read history; they would learn something. By the way, what country recognises Dieu et mon droit<\/em> for its motto? (spoiler alert, it’s a country where French is no longer spoken). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"High<\/a>
High angle shot in Antibes from the Bulwark. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I took the above shot from the top of the rampart in Antibes. I find Antibes much more authentic than some of the other places on the Riviera.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Titlt-shifts and wide angle shots<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"High<\/a>
A high angle shot photo of La Roche Guyon I eventually turned into a tilt-shift<\/a>. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you are a faithful reader of the Antimuseum, which I do not doubt a single minute, you already know everything about tilt-shifts<\/a> and miniature effects made with photography. This one was made directly on my then Nikon D7000 camera. I took it from the top of the castle at La Roche Guyon<\/a>. As it happens, tilt-shifts are especially effective when applied to high angle shots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"High<\/a>
View of Cahors from the top. To take this picture I had to climb a hill and wield my 300 mm zoom. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"High<\/a>
From a footbridge over a road in Paris <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You do not need to climb on hills to take wide-angle shots; a simple footbridge will do, as in the above shot taken in the 12th district of Paris of a speeding car. You may point out that I didn’t need to go that far to shoot a speeding car, and you would have, unfortunately, a very valid point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Wide<\/a>
From one of the Tours Duo in Paris 13th district<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For the above shot we climbed to the top floor of the newly built tour Duo where you may catch an amazing view of the City while sipping a refreshment. Well and truly recommended. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
The dreaded peripherique seen from the tallest of the Tours Duo. It almost looks good from that height. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

From above, almost anything would look good, even the good old dreaded Stinky Peripherique. A high-angle shot view of this urban motorway from the top of one of Jean Nouvel’s Tours Duo<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
