The Needle's Haystack is where I discuss art, mostly contemporary art and its theories. In the latest post I delve into uses of perspective, including in sculpture, photography, and anamorphic art. The convenience of bringing a camera with you everywhere seems to have had a deep influence on art, and perhaps on painting in particular. We don't have to try to remember scenes and reconstruct them from our far from perfect memories.

@ristoid Nice picture, is it yours?

And maybe put some of the text via Fediverse at least (consider it rather than expecting people to to external links)

@freeschool Thanks, the montage is mine, using found photos.
I did include an abstract of sorts before the link, but yes, I agree that it's a good idea to say a few words about what is to be found on the other end of a link.
