You would be forgiven for mistaking these photographs for something out of Gulliver's Travels or Alice in the Wonderland.
The clever examples of forced perspective photography produce mind-boggling results from around the globe.
With
the creative camera work, the photographers have been able to pull the
wool over the eyes of human perception even making a little girl appear
to stand over the Eiffel Tower.
Hanging around: A giant tourist holds a woman
over water at the Perito Moreno glacier in the Argentine region of
Patagonia with just one hand
Among the stunning shots complied by
environmentalgraffiti.com is a playful holiday snap which shows a giant
tourist holding a woman over water at the Perito Moreno glacier in the
Argentine region of Patagonia with just one hand.
Another visual gag shows a man about to eat a space shuttle at the Kennedy Space Centre at Cape Canaveral, Florida.
Standing tall: This little girl towers over the
world famous Eiffel Tower while a woman touches the top of a lighthouse
at Nova Scotia's Peggy's Cove
Size matters: The world’s largest salt plains of
Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia provides the perfect setting for
photographers keen to test out their perspective-bending skills
Nova Scotia's Peggy's Cove is the backdrop for another on the list, with a woman appearing to tower over its classic red-and-white lighthouse.
Salar
de Uyuni in Bolivia provides the perfect setting for photographers keen
to test out their perspective-bending skills, two examples manipulating
the perception of size in this collection have been taken in the
region, one with a giant banana large enough for two people to sit on.
Take-off: The Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida is the launch pad for both of these visual gags
The vast, expansive landscapes of the
world’s largest salt plains have few features to shatter the illusion
of big objects appearing small or small objects big, says writer Karl
Fabricius who compiled the pictures.
There is also an image which shows a woman blowing out the steam from the Old Faithful, Yellowstone's most famous geyser.
