Exactly. In one of Tcaeyx's profile renderings, the initial upwards angle of the model starts below the real one, and in the other, it's above. So I don't think doing this exercise without knowing the actual angles involved is productive.
Okay. Just to cover my bases, I've made a couple of these diagrams with reference photos taken from slightly above and slightly below. Takes me about 30 sec to make each one, and am happy to make more (with a photo of your choosing) to show you that the minute differences in photo angle is trivial at this point, as the average of all these diagrams show the same problem.
