This angle is very unique as it seems like the subject matter is falling, when in reality, the woman is just taking a step. The way that she is positioned in frame affects the way she looks and amplifies the obscurity of the photo. This cropping is also very unique as I feel it’s not a frequently sought out angle, (due to the way it transforms the image).
The movement in her hair also echoes the diagonals and suggests wind.
