At one time or another, most of us have seen a
close-up of something that was made to make us think it was actually something
else. Why did we not recognize the item for what it truly was?
Simply put, you had nothing to compare it to.
You had no point of reference.
Take a waterfall, tall and beautiful. Now visualize
a small stream trickling over the edge of a few large stones. If you
shoot it just right, they could look the same. “Wait a minute,? you’re
saying, “those are as different as night and day.? That’s a good point,
but unless you also include something to compare the water to, you have no
point of reference. This concept is
generally referred to as opposition.
