      I’ve seen too many pics of parks etc that use lenses this way. These two pics show the same people at the same moment.https://twitter.com/baekdal/status/1254460167812415489 …

      Danish news site reminds people of being skeptical of how news photographers take pictures. Here is the same place, one picture taken with a zoom lense, and the other with a wide-angle lense: https://nyheder.tv2.dk/samfund/2020-04-26-hvor-taet-er-folk-paa-hinanden-disse-billeder-er-taget-samtidig-men-viser-to … pic.twitter.com/mOSpiFEsDx

      eg here’s our park today with a normal (ie slightly wide) phone lens. Everyone’s a couple metres apart. If I’d used a telephoto or even a mildly long lens it would look like a social-distancing infraction.pic.twitter.com/S9anrEk9M7

      Eg — This shows New Yorkers exercising impeccable disease-control public hygiene — avoiding enclosed spaces, keeping far more than required distance between groups, keeping groups small. Yet its field depth (and spin) gives people the opposite impression https://twitter.com/anupkaphle/status/1256786398037921793?s=21 …https://twitter.com/AnupKaphle/status/1256786398037921793 …

      Doug Saunders Retweeted toronto.culture

      Repeat: People gathering in parks, in groups generally 2m apart, are not a problem -- they're a public-health solution. And using low-angle shots to make them look like a problem is petty. We should encourage these scenes.https://twitter.com/toronto_culture/status/1264292303587250177?s=20 …

      Replying to @DougSaunders @shawnmicallef

      Ignoring whether or not the groups are far enough away from other groups, I am doubtful that those are all groups of people that live in the same household
