Frog's eye view: How to pull off this perspective for smartphone pics


The fact that your phone's camera is so close to the edge makes it possible to take frog's-eye-view photos. — Andrea Warnecke/dpa

In most smartphone models, the main camera is located very close to the edge of the case – a fact that can be exploited to take pictures from a frog's eye or worm's eye perspective.

If you take photos with the phone on its edge on a floor or against a wall or ceiling, you'll be rewarded with completely new perspectives. The thing to remember here is to treat it as an experiment – not all shots will work.
