The Gentle Titan
Change your angle by six inches, and the entire hierarchy of the world is upended. A pebble becomes a boulder; a flower becomes a towering tree; a loyal house dog becomes a gentle titan surveying its kingdom with benevolent authority. That is the magic of photography, but it is also a vital lesson for daily life. When a problem looms so large that it blocks the sun, it is usually not because the problem is enormous; it is because we are standing too close to it, looking up from the ground. Shift your feet, step back three paces, and the monster shrinks down to an ordinary puppy trotting across the grass.
