Mom and Chick Eagles

Another local refuge shot. This time, it's an Eagle mom with imm chick. Chick decided to show off and flew around the area for about 30 frames of photos. Both slightly too far for ideal image detail, but, as is obvious, I don't discourage easily. Comments welcome, as always. Thanks! J

Well known in the photo community is kind of an understatement. This has been common knowledge in photography since the late 1800s and in fact was explored by artists without special lenses simple mathematical models of perspective since the early renaissance. George Santayana was right. On

Well, it depends on how the eyes of those aliens are lined up. The "normal" lens is "normal" for a human. (Just to remind in case someone here has forgotten: the normal lens provides the perspective close to that seen by a person.) So, for an alien with two eyes located closer to each other

I see it differently: Also people with one eye can see perspective. Perspective has to do with relative distance to the subject. At the right distance for a certain perspective, you have to chose a angle of view for the wanted size of he subject. Greetz, Jos On 02-Mar-18 21:52, Igor PDML-StR

Jos, You are right, optical parameters of a single eye play a role too. But because the image we "see" is a result of the brain combining the image from both eyes (if the binocular vision is working alright), - both play a role. The distance makes a difference, but when we are finding a lens
