Not arguing with the statement being made here but the tilt shift photography makes that picture much worse than it is in reality. Again, I completely disagree with these giant atrocities rolling down the road but still this photo is not accurate by any means.

I see some blurring, probably deliberate, on the left edge of the image. I don’t think this is “tilt shifted” and I don’t think the effect you’re describing would make the one truck seem larger than the other.

I don’t disagree with your point that the image is chosen specifically because it excessively highlights the difference in size… but I’d say it has more to do with the angle and the order of the trucks than any post fx.

Also, srsly: no tilt shift.

That's cool, I'm no photographer but there's something at play here skewing the perspective. Def not gonna argue if it is or isn't tilt shift, I don't fuckin know

I dont know much about much or anything either but I thought tilt shift made things look smaller but idk you know

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

It makes pictures of normal things from far away look like photographs of toys
