Understanding scale and proportion in photography through a visual experience in New Zealand! With @maxbuiting / New Zealand boasts a diverse landscape that includes breathtaking mountains, picturesque lakes, and lush forests. Among its natural wonders are over 50 peaks surpassing 7,500 ft (2,300 m) in elevation, making it a paradise for hikers and landscape photographers. The country’s mountainous terrain provides a spectacular backdrop for capturing awe-inspiring images that truly capture the essence of its vast scale. Generally, achieving a sense of scale is possible when counting with these elements: a foreground, the main subject, and a meaningful background. The images presented in this series have these three components, well defined by the majestic mountains, cliffs, and rocks, and even determined by their colors. Images based on color can be interesting. When there is a slight difference in the proportions of the colors, the image looks more dynamic. Pictures 7 and 8 are good examples of this, where the colors help distinguish the different layers of the image, guiding you toward the main character or hero. By the way, are you familiar with the hero’s journey as a concept in narratology? In a way, these images fit this category quite well as the hiker or hero goes on an adventure, is victorious in a challenging task, and comes home changed because of the experience in New Zealand. On the other hand, pictures 2, 3, and 4 have almost the same palette of colors for the foreground, subject, and background, guiding you through the stories homogeneously. In addition, this series conveys a great sense of scale thanks to the relative size of the subjects. So a way to enhance the impression of scale in your photos is by using proportion. For example, proportion in photography is essential when capturing a human figure - realistic human proportions make for a more lifelike portrayal. In contrast, unrealistic proportions create a more abstract and dreamy look. Therefore, by using proportion as a creative tool, you can add more or less importance to your subjects! @nomadict: You can read the full article with @maxbuiting by visiting the link in our bio! 📸
