16 Images That Illustrate How Viewpoint Can Shape a Different Reality

When taking a photo, different perspectives can create a much different picture. The sense of depth and the dimensions of the objects shown in the photo can really create an altered reality. For example, the closer an object is to the camera, the bigger it will look in contrast to the objects that are not that close. And while professional photographers can plan these tricks, average internet users often take such altered photos accidentally.

Best Tips & Tricks collected 16 pictures that might confuse you or make you realize that things we see everyday can be something completely different if seen from a different perspective.
