On my flight back to Colorado I took a nice enough picture of Denver and thought it would look great if it was tiny. Using Snapseed I tried to add tilt shift and adjust the filters, contrast, etc. so it looks close and tiny. My mom is giving me all her cameras and lenses for Christmas apparently so photo editing is something I should start working on.

My plan is to take my own reference photos to paint as well.

Below is the original photo.

Does this count as art?

Its so interesting how our brains see a limited focal range and naturally assume 'small'.

Like sure giraffes natural instincts are walking after 10 min or whatever, but our instincts are just "really good at imagining things" and somehow that made us global apex predators.

Long story short this is a cool ass photo, and I love the perspective it pushed me towards.
