Why Did Photos Taken by Others always Bring out Our Flaws为什么别人给我们拍的照片都很丑

I am a landscape photographer, generally,but occasionally am called on to photograph the occasional human or two.
I pull out the big camera with the telephoto lens and wide scatter①scatter 英 ['skætə] 美 ['skætɚ] vi. 分散,散开;散射vt. 使散射;使散开,使分散;使散播,使撒播n. 分散;散播,撒播fl ash.
"No, can't you… like use the phone?That will bring out my fl aws②fl aw 英 [fl ɔː] 美 [fl ɔ] n. 瑕疵,缺点;一阵狂风;短暂的风暴;裂缝,裂纹v. 使生裂缝,使有裂纹;使无效;使有缺陷vi. 生裂缝;变得有缺陷." Actually the reverse is true.
We look distorted③distorted 英 [dɪ'stɔːtɪd] 美 [dɪs'tɔrtɪd] adj. 歪曲的;受到曲解的v. 扭曲(distort的过去式和过去分词)in the phone cameras, better in standard 35 or 50 mm and even better in 135mm, but the best images are in telephotos.
Because the wide angles distort our face. 85mm is considered the goto standard for portrait, 135mm a good plus, anything above is a bonus.
Anything below, like our cell phones, is not going to make us look our best, not going to look like us.
But there could actually be more to it. Beyond the photography lesson. I see a different image in the mirror.
总体来说,我是个风景摄影师,但我偶尔也会被叫去拍一两个人像。
我拿出了我的大相机,上面装着远焦镜头和巨大的散射闪光灯。
“不,你能不能……比如,用手机?这个东西会把我拍丑的。”实际上事实正好相反。
我们在手机镜头里是失真的,而在35毫米或50毫米的标准镜头下则好很多,在135毫米镜头下则会更好,不过最好的照片还是要用远焦镜头来拍。
这是因为广角镜头(手机的就是这种)会让我们的脸变形。而85毫米的镜头则是拍人像时的首选镜头,135毫米的则是锦上添花,更高的则更好。
而在这个标准以下的,比如我们的手机,是不会让我们看起来太好看的,甚至都不会让我们看起来像自己。
而且实际上还不止如此。撇开摄影知识不谈,我们在镜子里看到的自己(和真实情况相比)是不同的。
