I often refer to my oldest boy as tall child because, well, he's tall. Taller than me. He likes that. I don't.
Regardless, Tall Child is taking a photography course in high school, and how cool is that? Of course, he's viewing this as a basketweaving type course, and I'm all excited and viewing it as let me do that for you help you with that!
So he had an assignment to do over the weekend where he had to take a miniature item to 10 different locations and photograph it to make it look "large size." I'm proud to say, I didn't help. But I did follow. With my crappy camera.
We start with a scene in the lightbox. And what have we here? It's my favourite red dragon harassing a squadron of storm troopers!
Now, my crappy camera does not have the best low-light settings (basically, it sucks in low light), but I think it works here, since the dragon should be covered in shadow with an impending sense of dread.
Here he is in all his glory, looking pissed off.
We can see from the first picture that he's already caused a casualty. Let's look closer.
There's one dude checking on his compatriot while the other two try to fend the dragon away. But look! Shaggy is making a run for it! Ruh-roh Shaggy. I don't think there's anyone under that dragon mask!
Next step was to take the dragon outside. He just ate Stormtrooper; he could stand to go for a walk and get some fresh air. Here he is, milling about in a farmers field or somesuch.
Now if we zoom back... waaaayyy back... aw.. he's not so ferocious afterall.
Yes, that's the Tall Child. I am trying to convince him to join Steem and blog all about his growth in photography over the course of the year. That'd make a really fun blog.
