"vr* , ~v Shooting from the ant's eye view lends charm to this picture by emphasizing the height, the smallness of the kitten, and utilizing the sky U • good nentral background. Whose Point of View--the Bird's or the Ant's? Let's stop to consider the point of view we usually take when we line up -a picture in t)ie viewfinder. At least nine times out of ten, we shoot the subject straight on. Many times this is the best way to do it, but if we let ourselves get in the habit of doing it all the time, our snapshots can get pretty monotonous. Look at your subject from various angles . . . think what your subject might look like to an ant who is sizing it from his point of view at a picnic spread on the ground. Then go to the opposite extreme and imagine what your subject might look like to a bird sitting in a tree. Of course, there may be points in between where the view is better, but don't hesitate to take a look from angles just that extreme. After all, -you are only looking in the viewfinder, and that doesn't cost a thing. Looking up, or down, on your subject often times helps you achieve the very desirable neutral background that may be impossible otherwise. When you look at a subject from a straightforward point of view and find that the background is cluttery, try a high or low angle. It is amazing what one or the other may ~e able to do to improve the situation. In outdoor shots, the ant's eye view can give you a nice sky background, while the bird's eye view can provide the plainness of a grassy lawn or the stones of a terrace to help your subject stand out. Indoors, the upward view gives a wall and ceiling background which may be desirable, and the downward look through the viewfinder gives the neutral background of floor or carpet to your picture. Don't do all your shooting at your eye level--try seeing how your picture would come out at the level of other eyes. --John Van Guilder EDISON COMPANY HAS STARTED NEW EXPANSION PROGRAM Commonwealth Edison company has expanded its construction program and now estimates approximately $600,000,000 will be spent for electric property additions during the five-year period 1955-19&0.

The company announced on Monday its plan to offer to holders of its common stock, for subscription, additional common in the ratio of one new share for each fifteen shares held. The Offering price is to be determined by the board of directors on the basis of market conditions prevailing shortly before the offering. Proceeds of the stock offering will be used to help finance the company's construction program. Willis Gale, Edison chairman, said the construction schedule for the five years. 1955 through 1959, involves the expenditure of about $277,000,000 for generating facilities, $309,000,000 for transmission and distribution facilities and $14,000,000 for general plant. "We have scheduled this construction," said Mr. Gale; ^'to meet T^fe growing^ elecfficity quirements of customers in the area served by. the Commonwealth Edison-Public Service system."
