Today, we experiment with the camera angles for the composition of the images. We will start with the three traditional angles for food photography.
In top down shots, we are directly above the food looking down onto it. This is great if you want to show a lot of things in the image at once.
For straight on view, the camera is almost parallel to the cake. These are great for dishes that you want to emphasize the height of the subject.
The Diner's View would simply be at an angle as you were sitting looking at the food. That would be somewhere between 20 - 40 degrees.
This dessert was very easy to make. It's an Angel Food Cake package baked according to the directions. The first layer inside the roll was Strawberry Ice Cream topping.
