What is the photgraphy technique called where you have an extreme upward angle of your object?



I recently took this picture at a musuem where a pendulum was hanging from a dome windowed roof. I looked upward and thought it would make a great picture. I took the picture with my digital HP and to my surprise the shot was amazing. I had the pic set at work as my desktop back ground and a fellow coworker came by (who happens to be a professional photographer on the side) and made a comment along the lines of it being a far from an amatuer shot and then gave the name of the technique. She said she really thinks I have an eye for the interesting. Well, needless to say she has since moved on from the company and I have not been able to remember the name of the technique. Any help would be great! I wouldn't call myself anything more then a shutter bug as I am always taking pictures. Many of them involve my children when they least expect it and other every day objects turned into something special thru a camera lense.

I'd simply refer to it as low-angle photography. A photo taken at ground-level looking up is dogs-eye-view (seriously!). Since it was taken a such a sharp angle it could also be called oblique-angle. My two copper's worth.
Perspective is the art of finding a location to shoot from, that makes a good photo into a unique and great. Basically, its changing angles a bit, and moving the subject about the frame, to give a different view.
I've heard so many different people use so many different words to describe this, but the terms I hear most often are low-vantage point, worm's eye view, or just low-angle photography.
Put your photo on yahoo flickr and ask your question they will be able to tell you what it is
