In relation to photography, ‘point of view’ refers to the position the camera is in when viewing a scene. Are you laying on the ground, looking up at your subject? Are you flying in a helicopter, looking down at the landscape below? Or are you simply standing and looking straight-on at your subject? Whether you’re looking up, down, or straight-on changes the scene dramatically, and changes the way that the viewer interprets the final photograph. Subjects can be dramatically distorted simply by where you place your camera. A blade of grass can look like a skyscraper, and a skyscraper can look like a tiny little house. It all depends on your point of view!

Being a Transportation designer finding what makes & takes a mark would be a revolutionizing area to find the key to design future.
I also explored by using scissors and sketching the shadows. This exploration was fun and interactive. I used clay to stick the scissors in required positions. My mother helped to collect all the scissors & to explore too...
