I am still trying to get to grips with the term ' Perspective ' in this discussion.

I have been compiling a reply in note pad that I have just read. Got totally confused and deleted it.

Being a simple soul I would look at subject A and decide how I wanted the background to impact on the final image. I may move closer with a wide angle to give depth to the background or move further away and use a telephoto to draw the background up. The relationship of other elements within either image would be quite different.

The question is then is that affecting perpective as I understand it. I would say YES.

PS Phew
Don once you start moving closer or farther away you are changing perspective. It is not the change of focal length that is doing it, that is only to fit the image on the screen.
