Is there a word for it?

I’m trying to find out if there is a word for something and in this case Google can’t help me.

I want to know what you call it when you take a photo of something and make it look like you are squeezing a huge landmark, or sitting on it or pushing it.

I’ve checked flickr tags and everything I can think of and there doesn’t seem to be a common word - people will either tag as funny, hand of god, pisa-pusher etc but I just can’t believe the whole genre doesn’t have its own word yet.

Google is crap when you know something visually but can’t describe the words for it. Surely I’m wrong and there is already a word for it - does anyone know what it’s called?

Much appreciation if you do…
