Typical
[New York vs. Los Angeles] or Vertical vs. Horizontal
I Once heard someone saying it is difficult persuading the beginner photographer to hold the camera vertically, and drop the familiar habit of making horizontal pictures.
I thought about it while photographing in New York and here is the simple solution to the problem:
Just send the stubborn freshman to New York!
For the most part, New York’s high-rise orientation doesn’t leave the person behind the camera much choice other then holding the camera vertically.
Trying the same method in LA, I often end up with a picture that has a lot of sky in it, but not much of LA.
