The Purple Giant

Forced Perspective 21 May 2015 1 Comment

Kind of a funny forced perspective photograph I came across a while back and put in a folder for future post ideas. It certainly looks like the man in the forefront (the purple giant?) is significantly taller than everyone else around him. He is standing on some sort of ledge closer to the camera than everyone else, but the floor that he is standing on and the floor of the people down around the pool blend together almost seamlessly. If anyone knows why this man is wearing an all purple outfit and wearing a scarf, please let me know. That’s probably the most puzzling part of this image, in my opinion.
