What is Forced Perspective?
Photographic technique that uses perspective to manipulate how the human mind perceives elements of the photo.
Can be intentional or unintentional
Fun way to add interest to photos
No Photoshop required :-)
How does it work?
Size is always relative in photography
Photos by their nature are scaled, never 1:1
Perspective changes everything
The mind sees what it expects it will
Unintentional
Is a Chinook only slightlytaller than a person?
Intentional (Architecture)

Background Interest
Tilt/Shift (Tile / Rise)
