Smith: Playing with Perspective - the Gulliver's Travels Effect


This photograph calls to mind the iconic Pisa photos in which tourists play with the perspective of the camera and simulate the action as if they are holding up the Leaning Tower. Here, the subject/object relationship is the same in that the man in the foreground not only seems larger than the people in the background (as is to be expected) but he is also interacting with and controlling them in a way that seems to place them on the same plane.
