Types of Perspective in Photography

Linear Perspective

I chose this photo because you can easily see the distance and you are able to tell that the scene diminishes.
The lines are converging to one point.

Rectilinear Perspective

I chose this photo because this photo is made up of straight lines. All of the windows are straight lines so they reproduce to be straight lines in the picture also.

False Perspective

This photo produces a false perspective because you can see the lines of the sidewalk are not straight even though in reality they really are.

Vanishing Point Perspective

I chose this photo because the lines that are parallel to each other give the sensation of meeting at vanishing points. For this picture you can tell that the vanishing point is right in the center. 

Height Perspective

This photo produces a height perspective because since you can see the base of the one tree you are able to tell it is much father away than the ones close up, but it is still the tallest tree.

Overlap Perspective

I chose this photo because it is easy to see that the closer objects from the viewpoint are the ones that overlap other objects. You get a sense of depth and perseption because the overlapping is repeated.

Dwindling Size Perspective

This photo produces a dwindling size perspective because you know that all the crayons are the same size but depending on their placement, some crayons look larger than others.

Volume Perspective

I chose this photo because this photo is fully lighted and other parts are in a shadow so it forms volume. The distance between the subjects' shadows helps to precieve teh overall depth of the scene.

Atmospheric Perspective

This photo produces an atmospheric perspective because since the subject is far in the distance it comes off a little foggy because the air contains many things such as water vapor, dust, and smoke.

Bird's-eye View Perspective

I chose this photo because it is a perfect example of what a bird could see if it was looking down while flying overhead.

Worm's-eye View Perspective

This photo produces a worm's-eye view perspective because it is how the viewer would see things if they were a worm.

Forced Perspective

I chose this photo because it employs an optical illusion since the man is closer than everyone else. It makes the people that are in the distance look minature like they would all fit in the man's hand.

Peer Critique

In Lauren's Elf Effect with Sparkle's project there is a little boy wearing cute stripped pajamas. He is sitting down and the picture was taking from the side of him but you can still see both eyes. There is a christmas tree in the background and it is all lit up. There are many sparkles bordered around the picture.

Lauren used many tools to make the little boy look like an elf. The top's of his ears are points and his nose is pushed up. She cropped her picture so it was only of the little boy. His face looks a lot more softer than the original photo. The colors in this picture are very bright and it gives off a happy feeling.

To me, even though the boy looks a little serious I think Lauren did a great job because he looks just like a baby Christmas elf. Looking at the picture, the mood is definitely postive and joyful because Christmas is a time of joy. My favorite part of Lauren's picture is how her sparkles came out and his ears

Iconic Photo

Lewis W. Hine (American, 1874-1940)

Icarus Atop Empire State Building

Lewis Hine was best know for his photograpghy inspiring social change. Hine's interests are in social welfare and reform movements. His photogrpahs were used for many things including to make lantern slides for lectures and to illustrate pamphlets, magazine articles, and exhibitions.

This picture interests me because by the city background you can see how high up the man is and he still has no safety ropes or anything preventing him from falling.

This photo is significant because it shows people how dangerous and horrid their work of constucting the Empire State building was.
