Inevitably, the camera must be tilted in order to
include the top of the building and minimize the
foreground (Fig. 2). But with the camera tilted, the
plane of the film is no longer parallel to the subject,
and because the image size varies according to subject
distance, the nearer parts of the subject are repro
duced on a scale larger than those farther away.
The sides of the building appear to converge, as if the
building were leaning back or falling. Similar distor
tion occurs in horizontal lines when photographing a
long line of buildings at an angle.
Note: Meter with the camera aimed for the general final com
position; this is shown by Fig. 2 on this page.
