Car Garages
#oneperday2017
TECHNIQUE
iPhone 6s Photography, Photoshop
PROCESS
I made this image by using my nephew's toy cars and setting them up in likely stationery scenarios. I cut up 3 polystyrene cups to create garage doors and positioned the cars as if they were in motion driving out of their garages. I layered in a background landscape from another photo I took because the original image contained objects that contradicted the scale at which I was trying to set with the objects in the foreground.
REASONING
My imagination was triggered by the movie Cars. I liked that they had hotel rooms for cars made out of traffic cones. I tried to recreate a similar idea here with the objects I had at my disposal.
REFLECTION
I'm very happy with how this image turned out. I think it sets the scene really well. In future I would probably choose a different background landscape because the sky is quite overcast but the natural light and shadow in the foreground image indicates that it is a very sunny day so there is a bit of contradiction there.
