99 Excellent Examples of Forced Perspective Photography | Photography

http://www.instantshift.com/2011/11/03/99-excellent-examples-of-forced-perspective-photography/ Forced perspective is a technique that employs 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. There are many ways to attack photography and some are much more expensive than others.

Gathered below are 45 images from the three categories of People, Places, and Nature, with captions written by the individual photographers.

With the D800, Nikon looks poised to catch up to, if not overtake, Canon in the hearts and minds of full-frame devotees. With all the information about the D800 having leaked in advance, it's easy to tell what's been most attention-grabbing: the high-resolution sensor and the D800E sibling model, which incorporates a modified low-pass filter system that results in little to no antialiasing.
