Perspective

One of the assignments from last week was photography of children. I have quite a few pictures of children and several from yesterday of my nephews...but instead of using one of those, I took a concept from that to implement in this photo, although I used it on adults ;)
Perspective can be defined as "The relationship of aspects of a subject to each other and to a whole" so in this photo, the focus is on each of the individuals compared to the others in the group. For your reference, Jason, the guy in the blue shirt is over 6 feet tall, while at the other end, Shelly, in the black, is actually about 6 inches shorter. In composing the shot, the tallest people stood at the lower end of a hill and so forth on up, with the exception of Melissa, who is standing in front of her husband Jason at the bottom (left) and thus you can see her real height as compared to him. Just something to think about...
