It's A Matter Of PerspectiveVery strong!  Week 18, Assignment 2 for Take A Class With Dave And Dave.
This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.
Perspective - Things that are close are big. Things that are far away are little. Yes -- that's an over-simplification. But you get the idea, right? Very very little photoshop here. I had to tweak Kathy's feet a bit due to how Savanah was holding her hand, but the illusion was created using perspective rather than photoshop. Kathy is actually standing on the hill in the background and Savanah is standing about 4 feet away from the camera. When we were given the perspective assignment I knew right away I wanted to do something like this and I am really pleased with how it turned out. Comments

Yeah, I figured people would look at it and
think Photoshop, which is why I emphasized
that there was only the tiniest bit at
Kathy's feet. Giving directions to a 5 year
old who isn't at all sure what she is doing
was difficult to say the least. The bottoms
of Kathy's pants were photoshoped over her
thumb which I couldn't get her to put down to
save my life.
There is still time! LOL
Thanks!
Woo Hoo, another fish!
Thanks!
Thanks!
If you only knew how true that is! Thanks
and I think you've just inspired another
concept. Now I just have to figure out how
to do it.
All you need is a hill and two willing
participants :)
Thanks!
It should be doable on a much smaller scale
as long as the objects you are using are
different enough in scale to make the
illusion workable.
You can see how happy Kathy is in the
background. It took a lot of prodding to get
her to participate
Thanks!
Honestly, the only photoshop done to this
picture was exactly what I said. The reason
that it appears as if there are two light
sources is due to a tree that is just off the
left of the shot that is blocking direct
sunlight on Savanah. Kathy is beyond the
tree and is highlighted by the sun. Savanah
is lit only by the ambient light available
during the afternoon. 
Look forward to seeing what you come up
with.
Finding location...
