  1. The photographer in this photo series play with scale and proportion by making the dog large and over sized.
    The photographer was able to manipulate the image so that the dog looks so big by editing the photo and playing with the scale and proportion.
    Some ideas I get when looking at this photo series would be by making an object in my photo look bigger than it really is.

    The photographer makes the dog look really big.
    He used photoshop to add the dogs in the picture

  3. The photographer plays with scale and proportion by making his dog freakishly big, but he doesn’t alter the background or himself. I think he took a picture of the dog by itself, and then took a picture of himself and painted the dog in, but he adjusted the size too. It could also be just the dog and a green screen, because it’d be much easier to edit the dog in. Idea wise, I’m not quite sure. I usually don’t do photos like this, so I don’t get inspiration from this.

    The photographer plays with scale and proportion by making something that is smaller than he is, look much much bigger in the photo. I think that the photographer used Photoshop to manipulate the image by selecting the dog and using layers to increase it’s size.
    This gave me an idea to, instead of making something smaller into something bigger, make something really big into something really small.
