The genius of Robert Capa:
Making his subjects more epic, grand, and larger than life.
How? Physical proximity. Getting super close, and shooting from a low angle (while being close to the ground).
The Superman effect
FRANCE. Arras. March 23rd, 1945. An American Parachutist preparing to board the plane for the jump accross the Rhine River. 
Do you want to make your subjects look larger than life? Get insanely close, crouch down super low, and exaggerate their size! And shoot wide angle.
