Worm's Eye POV
The worm's eye point of view is when the photograph is taken from the ground looking up at the subject. It communicates power and strength the subject holds over the photographer (or seems to).
- Margaret Bourke White
This shot demonstrates the worm's eye POV composition. Taken from a low vantage point looking up at a very large, strong statue (The Statue of Liberty no less), the power being held over the photographer is quite evident. With the subject being what it is, even visually the colouring and texture shows how strong and powerful it is, and the POV from which the shot is taken from adds to this to portray a very powerful shot.
