Flattening the Field: The Creative Power of Lens Compression in Wildlife, Nature & Portraiture
Lens compression is a visual effect associated with telephoto lenses. When photographed properly, the subject's foreground and background appear closer together in an image than they are to the naked eye. The effect is created by using various camera distances and positions when capturing an image. By doing so, it can make things in the frame seem closer or larger than they really are. The results can be uniquely beautiful, quirky, impactful, surreal and atypical from the traditional images of landscapes, wildlife and portraits. This session will introduce you to the techniques, equipment and scenes needed to create uniquely compelling, artistic images that move your work into a realm beyond the classic and cliché.
