I used to project images onto a white wall in my basement up in NJ.  I
noticed that if the foot of the picture was at the floor, there was a
feeling that one could step into a suitably photographed scene.  The effect
was striking even when seated for viewing.  The effect was broken when the
picture was raised from the floor (and necessarily reduced in size).
