At first sight these photos seem ordinary, unremarkable. On closer inspection you can see
that each picture has a clever feature. A case of a camera man showing opportunism.
Clever, but I would not have spotted the fortuitous juxtaposition if I had not seen the first
three pictures. It
would have been even better, if the photographer had distilled the idea and posed a girl in a white dress, rather than a boy in blue shirt.
I wonder how many
shots the photographer took to get the perspective just right? Alternatively, did he
skillfully superimpose an image of himself on the
Leaning Tower of Pisa?
We Know What They Are Doing! Striving for that Clever Photograph
These images are actually identical, but the tower on the right looks
more lopsided because the human visual system treats the two images as one
scene. Our brains have learned that two tall objects in our view will
usually rise at the same angle but converge toward the top. Because these
towers are parallel, they do not converge, so the visual system thinks they
must be rising at different angles.
Here is snapshot of a statue in Kaunas, Lithuania, the title seems strange: 'Sowing
Stars'. In the daytime it makes no sense at all. Could there be a mistake in translation? Have a look
below ....
Same statue, but now we have night-time shadow, clever photography.
