Actually Denholm, it's quite the opposite.
In picture taking, as well as real life,
Closer things are sharper, have more "color" and more "contrast"
Farther things are blurrier, have LESS color, and LESS contrast.
Basically it makes things closer look brighter and darker at the same time, and the background looks "washed out"
