Fascinating. Although I’ll happily tell them if they ask
I wonder if they considered the effects of compression at different focal lengths when judging the distance between objects in the landscape. -
Adams worked when zoom lenses (variable focal length) were at best rare, so the selection of lenses available to him could be determined. Few lenses (even today) have a "flat field", so close analysis of picture could probably pick a lens from the (small) number of possibilities.

Yeah I know. I was just wondering if it was considered

Effective FoV, pixels per second of arc. They're things you look at when *choosing* which telescope to use. (Experience : 1 wk undergraduate work at Mallorca Uni's observatory.)

Are you drunk?

Optics has laws. They haven't changed since before Imhotep was born, and won't in our lifetimes. A shot that Hitchcock liked was to zoom in while pulling focus back, so the FoV margins seemed to wrap around the camera/ audience. Very startling. (Hence, Hitch liked it.) But /2

+2/ the effect it produces on screen is a terrifying focus of attention. (I need to check, but the zoom on the girl in 'Psycho' as she *didnt* get knifed was classic Hitch. Modern still cameras can do the same on a landscape, and thinking about the optics is educational.

Forensic astronomy? Wish I'd studied that in school. Might come in handy when we find those exoplanets that may harbor life.

The human animal cannot create insulin blood dreams life or ‘logically’ thought or ideas All functions of the body To narcissistically take credit for thought ideas that the human animal assumes makes it special, is no different than claiming you can create blood dreams or lifepic.twitter.com/Zay2ITMHoo

We have dreams we have children we have thoughts ideas No one claims they can create dreams or their children But when it comes to ideas that logically come from the same source as dreams, people narcissistically take credit for something they cannot possibly create, only havepic.twitter.com/tfzfVOCZxl

Stands to reason, if you can figure out where a photograph was taking, you can solve all the problems of civilization ad infinitum. In fact, can you even call things like fresh water depletion a problem? They are opportunities for growth!

@Gyeff there will always be subjectively (and perhaps objectively) more important topics, but how boring and flat and one-sided would the world be if we never allowed ourselves to pursue a bit of fun. Surely we have the cognitive capacity to be interested in more than one topic -
Thank goodness, I finally have permission to forget the Holocaust. Now I can have more memory space to store important things like how many seconds it takes to boil an egg in the microwave.
