Scale

Scale is a standard of measurement or judgment or a perceived measurement. In class we learned about having dominance and making our scale go from a tiny thing to a huge larger than life thing. The image I chose came from the internet. I chose this image because I think it shows scale very well. The person in the image seems very small compared to the giant door way. There is also what looks like a piece of cardboard that looks like it is the same size as the person. I think that scale was not only shown through the person standing in the large door way but also by having the view out the door clouds. Having the view of clouds out the door gives the idea that the house is either very tall or floating in the air somehow. I think this makes me think that the world is huge and the person is looking out onto the world. This image makes me think of being in a plane looking out the window down onto the tiny houses until they disappear into colors almost.
