little people pictures

My Recce photos

my idea for "little people"

for one of my pictures i am going to use a figure and put it infront of the computer and show what the differnce in size is. the figure im going to use is the small girl because she is the smallest and i think that i could use her as a student. another one could be where i use a few figures and sit them around the computer desk.

another idea is to have a bottle of drink and have one of the figures beside it and have a pack of chewing gum and will still be bigger then the figure.

i could get a book open it up to a page and have a figure standing infront of it so it looks like its reading..

i could have a figure sitting on a bench outside and show how small they actually are.

if think this is a good way to show how the college is and what it has to offer.
