It is just a fan’s perspective. One of the things about looking at these images is how the event appears to have been shrunk to some extent. It almost seems surreal.

A New York Times photographer, I can’t remember his name off the top of my head, had a series of images that were taken at major sporting events across the country with a TS-E lens. The project was originally suppose to be areal images of the events, but with all the post 9/11 restrictions that idea was deep sixed.

It’s a different perspective that almost seems to remove you from reality a little bit. I think he described it as almost looking into a doll house.

To me, it is just the fans’ perspective.

I guess what I’m saying is – would these pictures be successful if the plane of focus wasn’t altered?
