The importance of scale in creating a unique point of view

Adobe approached me with a unique commission: to explore the dynamic relationship between subject and object, particularly in the context of scale perception. The resulting collaboration led to the creation of an insightful article that delves into the intricacies of visual perception and composition, offering valuable insights for photographers and enthusiasts alike.

In this comprehensive exploration, I dissect the ways in which intentionally arranging objects of varying sizes in proximity to one another can profoundly influence viewers’ perceptions of scale, injecting an element of whimsy and intrigue into the visual narrative. By strategically positioning certain elements closer to the camera in the foreground, I demonstrate how this simple technique can create compelling illusions, effectively manipulating the perceived size of the background and inviting viewers on a journey of discovery through the interplay of scale and perspective.
