Thus the effect of Google's wide-angle lens. Not reading the EXIF Data of Duck's lens, I would guess it to be a deep telephoto/zoom. The sheer compression appears to make it so dramatic, much like that of a baseball game from behind home plate where the centerfielder seems as large as the pitcher, for example. |
