Answer: I was walking on a long bridge. When I look in front of me, the bridge seem to become narrow because of the large distance and the angular field.
The more I step back from the bridge, the more it becomes small and eventually vanishes. Example: the size of the sun and moon is very large but they look smaller on the earth due to the long distance.

The bridge looks narrow due to the long length and the aspect of angular view.
Explanation:
- When I walk on a bridge it appears to be narrow in the front and this is due to the length of the bridge and the angular field of vision that we have.
- Gradually it appears as if the bridge has vanished in the far distance and this is because the two sides of the bridge have converged and then it exists as a point and eventually it appears to have vanished.
