What are the three general views of crime scene photos?

• A. Overall - area, Global - wide, Detail - close
• B. Overall - area, Intermediate - mid-range, Close-up.
• C. Exterior - interior - peripheral
• D. Global - intermediate - close-up

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is documenting a crime scene at three different scales to capture both context and details. You start with a broad overall shot to show the entire area and how everything fits together. Then you move to an intermediate or mid-range view to illustrate spatial relationships between objects, entry points, pathways, and other features. Finally, you take close-up shots to document specific items, textures, inscriptions, or small pieces of evidence with enough detail and scale references.

This option aligns with that approach: Overall captures the whole scene, Intermediate provides mid-range relationships, and Close-up documents the fine details. The other choices mix terms that aren’t the standard sequence for scene photography (for example, using global or exterior/interior in place of the established overall, mid-range, and close-up progression).
