PHOTOGRAPHIC DECEPTION
Even to tho Camera Things Are Not Al
ways What They Seem.

The camera is generally considered to bs
most trustworthy witness, and the un-
compromising accuracy and truthfulness
of photograph have led many artists to
look upon such pictures as mere mechanic
al productions possessing little true artistic
value Popular Science News, however,
from which the accompanying engraving Is
reproduced, says that this engraving shows
that to the camera things are not always
what they seem, and that by taking aivan
tage Of the laws Of optics the camera may
be made to confirm the most improbable,
stories Of syorfsmen. who from the days OF
Nimrod have been noted for the freedom
with which they adjust actual facts and
achieved results to their ideal conceptions
of what should have occurred.
The illustration is copied from an actual
photograph, and is apparently a conclusive
proof Of the luck or skill of the two hunt.
ers in capturing an enormous animal some
what resembling a rabbit. The animal
was reaIlya rnbbit of ordinary size. but in
arranging the group it WAS suspended by a
fine thread in such position that il ap
peared to he suspended from the pole on
the shoulders Of the men, but In fact was
several feet nearer the camera, its actual
size being thus magnified out Of all proper
ton to that of its captors.
The Journal quoted suggests, a. a simpler
modification Of this principle, TO photograph
fish or an animal in the same picture with
two foot rule or 10 foot pole. By placing
the animal nearer the camera it may BEEN
larged to any desired size A little care in
arranging the group Is necessary 10 obtain
good results. and lens with considerable
depth Of focus and very small stop must
be used. but the amusing and mysterious
photographs thus secured will well repay
the trouble
