Vantage point
Vantage point is how you take a photo and how the viewer feels they are when they view your work. If you are above the subject looking down on them then that would be a high angle, If you were below the subject looking up at them then that would be a low angle. There is also birds eye view looking straight down on a subject from high up and also worms eye view getting on a small subjects level.
