2. In the text an example of Juxtaposition was given, looking up at an ant, what is another example? Another example would be looking up at a child or up at tall buildings.
3. What is the visual impact on the viewer when using the Become the Subject technique? Become the Subject allows the viewer to feel they are experiencing what is going on in the image through their or the subject's eyes.
4. Why does shooting from a low angle makes the subject feel in control? Shooting from a low angle can portray a loss of control or make an object seem unobtainable. The subject from which the viewer seems to be looking up at can also make the viewer feel smaller.
5. Why does the viewer feel superior when shooting from above? The viewer is looking down on the subject, giving the viewer a sense that the viewer looking down is "placed on a pedestal" or the object of attention.
