Perspectives by Giles Miller.
Part of the 'Inspiring Views' project in the Surrey Hills.
This pod-like shelter is nestled in the woods at Winterfold in the Hurtwood. The visitor enjoys a secluded experience sitting and looking out across to the beautiful South Downs. The steel structure is entirely clad in cedar shingles that have slowly greyed over the years making the artwork feel truly part of its natural surroundings.
Many of the shingles have been engraved with words from visitors to the site. There are observations from infants at the local school, regular walkers expressing their love of the place or people who are making dedications. The cedar shingles also make up the long curved seating within the pod encouraging dialogue between visitors as they meet at this section on the Greensand Way.
Trying forced perspective with Dale and Isaac. This was our first time attempting this. We may have to try again.

After the comments on DCL's turbine photo this week. I'm certain many people feel the same way about Industrial Wind Turbines as King Kong and I do... We hate them, King Kong wants to Crush them!
This artwork is a response of the topic of Perspective. This topic took a bit of contemplating to get a final idea, but the final outcome wasn't so bad. I think that there is alot oing on at once, which in all adds to the overall feel, but it does look a bit clustered.
I thought that by taking a variety of perspectives and placing them in one artwork, would create this feeling of depth where there is more in it than 'meets the eye'. I wanted to get that feeling by using photos as a base and acrylic to mold it's purpose.
I used the mix media approach by taking photos which have more angles to them to enhance perspective, and painted acrylic around them to be able to link them and manipulate them to further enhance that perspective.
All of the photos are mine.

I was having a conversation with a friend about why I like long lenses. For the track, they're almost mandatory. But one cool feature of long lenses is "perspective compression". As you all know, objects in the foreground will appear larger than objects in the background. We've all experienced this. Think of an image of a bunch of people standing in a line; you're shooting "down" the line. Even if all the people were the same height (Miss America pageant?) he first person will appear the tallest, and the furthers person will look the shortest. This effect is magnified by using wide angle lenses (wider than "normal", which is about 50mm on 35mm SLR's). The effect is minimized by using longer lenses. In this case, the bike in the background is about 1/4 mile behind the lead bike. To look at this with the naked eye, you would barely notice the bikes in the background, but a long telephoto (728mm equivalent, 400mm + 1.4x teleconverter + 1.3x crop factor) you create an image that is powerful because it's so different than what you would experience "naturally."
Dyrham Park - The perspective painting by Samuel van Hoogstraten which is mentioned in the diary of Samuel Peyps. The painting is through a doorway which makes it look as if you can walk through it
That's what happens when you get really close with a wide-angle...
1- You scare your cat
2- You distort perspective
