What is forced perspective photography?
Forced perspective photography is a technique that uses an optical illusion to make an object appear farther away, closer, larger or smaller than it actually is. It is used primarily in photography, filmmaking and architecture. It manipulates human visual perception through the use of scaled objects and the correlation between them and the vantage point of the spectator or camera.
Analysing my forced perspective photography work:
Light.
This forced perspective photograph has been edited on Adobe Lightroom to enhance the light and shadows of the image. The fingers curve around the light showing a diffferent perspective than you would usually see. Using the hand as a comparative, the light looks really small and not like its actual, real life size.
