I admire any kind of creative talent, it’s what adds texture to life in my opinion. The creative genius of some individuals just blows me away with their obvious dedicate to perfect their craft. One such person I recently came across is Heather Rooney who is just an amazing artist, check out her Youtube channel by following the link in her name. This is just a taster of the amazing work she does.
This is Heather’s tribute to the late, great, Robin Williams using Prismacolor colored pencil drawing and recorded using time lapse photography. Truly inspirational to watch the image created in front of our eyes, I am sure you’ll agree.
Focal Length has a dramatic effect on photographs. The whole image is transformed. When you shoot at wide angle the elements in the image are spaced out not just in terms of field of view (from side to side), but also from front to back with foreground and background elements looking to have more distance between them. As you increase your focal length, the field of view is narrowed and the elements in the background appear to move closer to the foreground elements. Check out the video above and the images below to see how each of the focal lengths impacts the look of the photos.
This illustration is taken from the same distance for each shot.
In the second illustration I have changed camera position with each shot to try to frame the subject the same in each photograph. It shows dramatically how the background creeps up on the subject with each increase in focal length. I have moved from approx 1 feet from the subject, in the first photo to about 30 feet away in the last photo to be able to give the subject the same framing.
A long focal length is ideal for zooming in on distant subjects so that they appear to be closer to the camera position. Short focal lengths are best for getting more of the scene into the photograph, or if you are unable to move back to get more of the scene in with a longer focal length.
