Dear reader, if this entry or my other blog entries don't answer your specific photography questions, you can call me on the phone anytime for advice by clicking here.If you desire to create a graphic, or metaphor-laden image, try using a very wide angle lens. The perspective distortion on wide angle lenses removes the subject from reality, and may take your image from
documentary to
illustration.
This technique is especially evident and useful when the lens focus is on a part of the subject that protrudes, or is extended radically toward the camera lens (see attached photo). That which is closest to the wide angle lens will appear accentuated and large, in relation to the background.
This illustrative photo was a group project by Sue Furlong, Lauchlan Ough, and myself, commissioned by the
International Youth Media Summit, in Belgrade, Serbia.Email this Blog to a friend.
