A smartphone positioned upright (portrait orientation) and horizontally (landscape orientation) Page orientation is the way in which a rectangular page is oriented for normal viewing. The two most common types of orientation are portrait and landscape. [1]
Normally the size should be specified as a value relative to the user's preferred base size, using the |upright= parameter rather than pixel values. Where size forcing is appropriate, larger images should generally be no more than 500 pixels tall and 400 pixels wide, so that they can comfortably be displayed on the smallest displays in common use.
For example, the usable height of 120-format roll film is 56mm, so a width of 70mm (as in 6×7) yields an aspect ratio of 4:5 — ideal for enlarging to make an 8×10" portrait. Print sizes are usually defined by their portrait dimensions (tall) while equipment aspect ratios are defined by their landscape dimensions (wide, flipped sideways).
Note that the angle of view changes significantly (compare the background in each photo), and the distance between objects appears greater with each succeeding image. In the fourth image at the lower right, taken with the widest lens, the building behind the object appears much further away than in reality.
The L.A.-based artist Adam Davis is touring his "Black Magic" show around the U.S. in his pursuit to make 20,000 tintype portraits of Black Americans.
An example is Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall (2009) which, while acknowledging the work of the historian Mary Robertson for background information, imagines an intimate portrait of Thomas Cromwell and his intense relationship with Henry VIII at a critical time in English history. It could be argued that in literature any portrait is a discreet ...
A macro photograph showing the defocused effect of a shallow depth of field on a tilted page of text This photo was taken with an aperture of f /22, creating a mostly in-focus background. The same scene as above with an aperture of f /1.8. Notice how much blurrier the background appears in this photo.
The installation is actually two scrims of identical size, one behind the other in mirror image to give the viewers a 3-dimensional experience while walking beside the diorama. Within the Canadian Museum of History, one wall of the massive Grand Hall is composed of a scrim covered by a photo of a forest. The photo is about 100 by 15 m (328 by ...
