No doubt it is true; just hadn't thought about it. Yeah, if you hold stuff in front of you, closer to the camera, it'll look significantly larger. The trick is not to let the camera "see" that your arm is stretched forward.

Things closer to the camera look disproportionately large, so don't clutch the fish against your chest, hold it out toward the camera. My BIL's king salmon was large, but in the photo it was huge. :-) -aem |

Then get in close enough so it's not obvious that it's a wide angle, but not too close where it makes everybody's noses look enormous. Bob |

Easter menu to hassenpheffer (sp?) DD would get a real kick out of telling her classmates that she had rabbit for Easter dinner. :-) I better check with Wife first... Bob |

I remember a movie that sounds just like that except for the giant hare part. _The Leech Woman_ (1960) maybe? (not to be confused with _The Wasp Woman_ from the same genre and period) Best regards, Bob |
