About Miniature Size Landscape Fotografie-Serie
Miniature Size Landscape ist eine Fotoserie, die kleine Naturszenen so darstellt, als wären sie weite Welten. Gräser, Moose, Blumen und andere Pflanzen, die zu Füßen der Passanten wachsen, werden zur Kulisse. Eine zwei Zentimeter große Zwergenfigur wandert durch jede Szene, und jede Ansicht ist so komponiert, als würde man sie durch die Augen dieses Zwerges sehen. Die Bilder entstehen mit einem Weitwinkel-Makroobjektiv, mittels Focus Stacking für eine große Schärfentiefe sowie unter Einsatz von Linear-, Verdeckungs- und Luftperspektive. Ziel ist es, an die imaginierten Welten der Kindheit zu erinnern und zur Achtsamkeit gegenüber der Natur anzuregen.
