Vanishing point photographyVanishing point photography involved many aspects of knowledge and skills.
[1. Concept of Vanishing Point]
The vanishing point was also known as the convergence point of the convergence line. Based on the principle of perspective, the large object near the lens and the small object far away would eventually converge into a point and disappear. In photography, painting, video, and other visual art works, it was the basic element to express the depth of space. For example, in scenes such as roads and streets, the virtual point where the edge of the road extends to the distance is the vanishing point. The viewer's line of sight will naturally be guided to that position, thereby enhancing the visual effects such as depth and intensity of the image.
** 2. How to use the Vanishing Point in a photo **
1. ** Searching for a strong vanishing point **
- To find a place with a great depth, such as a tunnel, street, bridge, or road, it could be used as a powerful vanishing point. Moreover, there were many places where he could take good photos using Vanishing Points, such as buildings, stairs, forests, etc. The key was to analyze which shooting point was the best.
2. ** Increases depth **
- Changing the position of the camera could enhance the depth effect. For example, lowering the camera or taking a photo from the side could make the depth effect more prominent in the image.
3. ** Using environmental elements **
- Repeating elements in the environment such as pillars, street lamps, and trees appear large when they are close and small when they are far away. This feature can be used to enhance the depth of the picture. It was a good choice to start practicing by shooting buildings or landscapes. It was easy to find the vanishing point and adjust the frame of the scene in these scenes. In addition, the elements in the picture could guide the line of sight to the center or the end point, enhancing the importance and intensity of the picture.
4. ** Using a wide-angle lens **
- The wide-angle lens was a short-focal length lens that could portray a large scene and introduce a larger depth of field. It could enlarge the depth of field by expanding the angle of view, which was helpful in making use of vanishing point composition.
** 3. Correct Vanishing Point Setting **
The position of the Vanishing Point could produce different effects, and it could even define the style of photography, painting, movies, and other art forms. For example, one-point perspective only had one vanishing point, which attracted attention to oneself, while two-point perspective had two vanishing points on the horizon. When used properly, it could give the photo a unique look, focusing on the middle of the image and giving people a sense of depth through the guide line. In the shooting of people and scenes, the two-point perspective method not only made the picture more three-dimensional, but also affected the framing and composition. When shooting, the position of the two vanishing points was usually determined first, then the framing range was determined, and finally the position of the subject was determined to obtain a tensed picture.
** IV. Vanishing Point's application in image processing **
In image processing, especially when dealing with the problem of repairing images with perspective angles, the Vanishing Point filter command in Photoshop was very useful. It can simplify perspective correction editing in images that contain perspective planes (such as rectangular objects such as the sides of buildings, walls, and floors). In this filter, you could specify a plane, then use the marquee tool, brush tool, stamp tool, copy, paste, or transform commands to edit the image. The editing operations were all in line with the perspective relationship of the plane.

litterally giving it 3 stars b/c the author thought it would be fun to reuse the same gimmick and slow down the pace.they had a great start, interesting hook/premise and a sound foundation for the world. however that interest has pretty much died out for.story went from forest survival, villiage, back to a FORCED forest survival again.
