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.
