"Forced Perspective" Photography

Early Photoshop. The label on the first picture says "Copyright 1910 by Photo Art Shop." :)

Potatoes and cabbages.

That's some great stuff.
Then you have the opposite, tilt shift photos.
Make a real picture look like a miniature.

A complicated endeavor to do it with a camera but easily reproduced with Photoshop.
There are not APP's for Apple and Android phones to do this too.
No idea if they're any good.
 
Have you ever noticed ancient Egyptian carvings.? They don't do perspective. The soldier on the end of a long line is the same size as the one in front.

And you kind of have to agree with that. He might seem smaller in perspective but he's not really smaller.
 
Have you ever noticed ancient Egyptian mural art. When they depict a row of soldiers, they one in the back is the same size as the one in the front. They might seem smaller but they are not and that's how their artists depicted them.

To illustrate my point, this picture I just took. The tracks are really not getting smaller.Westfort 001.jpg
