A brief introduction on how these pictures might have been taken including macro photography - It involves the remodeling and painting of miniature train set figures, which he then places on the street and he then take a close up shot using the macro setting to focus on the figures and then a distant shot to show the figures surroundings. The scenes he sets up, more evident through the photography, and the titles he gives these scenes aim to reflect the loneliness and melancholy of living in a big city, almost being lost and overwhelmed.

Macro Photography

For this lesson we used macro photography; we took some objects and placed them into a good light source (e.g. a lamp) and then turned on the macro option on the camera and took close up shot's of each object, we did this to show the texture and shadow of the objects.
