Topic > Analysis: The Vitruvian Man - 1079

I didn't have to recruit anyone to take the photo thanks to the Samsung Galaxy Note 3's ability to take photos using a voice command. I needed two photos to make the replica. For the first photo I put the camera down and used the front camera. I positioned myself far enough away that I could fit my entire body into the photo with my arms outstretched. When I reached this position I raised both hands to both sides of my body while turning my left leg to show the inside of my foot. Looking closer at the picture I saw that I had to place my thumbs in the center of each hand and also bend the index finger of my right hand slightly. Then I continued with my second photo which was much more difficult. Since the second photo was supposed to be a picture of my limbs that would fit into the circular person of the artwork, I had to take this photo from an angle. To do this I used an envelope holder to get a forty-five degree angle and placed a wooden board forty-five degrees down on the opposite side of the camera. This time I had to take more photos to get the right angle of the arm. I then proceeded to download Gimp to be able to edit the images. Since the angles weren't right for two of my limbs, I had to crop them and overlay them behind my first image to get a decent representation of the image. After
