(2) The oblique aerial photograph presents the more natural view of the
target. There are two types of oblique photos:
(a) High oblique photographs are those taken at an angle raised from
the vertical so that the apparent horizon shows on the photo. It also shows
a partial third dimension by giving the side and top view of the object
(Figure 1-4).

(b) The low oblique is similar to the high oblique except that it
does not show the horizon. This is accomplished by taking the photograph at
an angle less than 30 from the perpendicular to the line of flight (Figure
1-5).
