Altering the field of view or pitch/roll of the 'camera' can help enhance the look of an image no end. Also an image of an aircraft landing (for example) is much more interesting when taken from beneath the aircraft than it would be when taken from, say, the edge of the airfield, so the 'camera' location is an important part of the composition. In these cases I agree with SunsetHunter and think it is a fair compliment to give.
