The subject transforms in many ways based on perspectives, distances, and angles of view. It can look bigger when you are close to it, but smaller when you are away from it. It can look slimmer if you sit at a certain angle or it can even look wider from another angle. 

A high angle can make an object look modest because it fits in the whole picture so we assume it may be small. 

A low angle can make an object look larger because it is super close usually and creates a tall perspective usually.

Choosing a close perspective creates more dimension in the picture and it gives a perspective that is more interesting to the eye. 

These various views can show how different things can look with different views and angles and they can be used to certain advantages.
