Sweet pic!

Vertigo insanity.

  ^ It's 2:1, but that fits these shots better than 2.35:1 (imho). Love it!

 

Thanks for answering. I have no idea. The full frame is 3:2 and the bars just cover it. I made them without much thought.

Thanks! Very generous compliment, though I definitely don't belong in the same breath as Escher, especially considering I really didn't do much --- I was in Taroko Gorge a few days ago, and we went into the pagoda of Xiangde Temple atop a hill deep within the gorge. I merely looked up and clicked the shutter button. It's a beautiful place, though, and definitely worth a visit for anyone considering a trip to Taiwan.

AFAIK, the matte standard is now 1.85:1, while back in the cool, old-school days, some films were shot anamorphically via CinemaScope with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio.

Finally got around to taking care of this...

I think I can speak for all of us in requesting a full body shot.

Haha. If only it were actually possible... the shooting space I have is extremely small; I'd need a 14 mm (135 film equivalent) lens for a full body shot. Sadly, I don't have $2400 at my disposal at the moment.

We are waiting.

I found another ( not mine) to inspire you.

I made a good bunch of photographs a while ago with a friend, in the tear gas. Had a lot of fun that day :
