Exercise: Diagonals
Take 4 photographs which show diagonals strongly.
Pge 60 TAOP - "Straight Edges, such as flat top tom a building, or the top of a wall, will become diagonal in the picture if you photograph them towards the distance - this is the normal effect of perspective. If you look down onto something, such as a simple still life arrangement, rotating the camera will turn horizontal or vericle lines into diagonals.... A high view of something on a large scale, such as a road coming towards you, moving to one side will create a diagonal.
They are very important in gioving a feeling of depth in an image - linear perspective is largely based on diagonals."
