The Power of Distance and Zoom

Something wonderous recently, I watched a photograph subject shrink after she finished off a bowl of porridge!
Here we see Sakura before her meal.

And here she is after!

Well, maybe it didn’t happen quite like that.
But the effect can be powerful when shown to someone unfamiliar with the technique.

Seeing the Focal Length

Sometime interesting recently. I was able to take photos showing focal length without even trying!

Come Farther and Go Nearer

Something different lately, I’ve been playing with distances. When photographing a subject with a background subject, the distance of the photographer from the main subject and the zoom of the camera can result in photos with the same sized main subject, but different sized background object.
