Canon EOS 6D: From Snapshots to Great Shots

Angles

Having strong angular lines in your image can add to the composition, especially when they are juxtaposed to each other (Figure 8.4). This can also add a bit of tension and a sense of dimension.

You can also tilt your camera at an angle (Figure 8.5). While I would be cautious about using this trick too often, it can be useful now and then.
