You have probably already heard about the techniques of photographing small objects which look like real ones on photos.
It seems that you can do a lot of photos like those with your toys, of course if you still have them....
Gareth Payne is not a professional photographer and he considers photography as his hobby but he has managed to create a pretty interesting collection of photos using some of his toys.
Gareth is actually involved in photography since 2004 and since then he has significantly improved his techniques and he decided to base his work as a photographer only on photographing toys.
Here you can see a number of photos of toys made by him where you can find that most of those photos reminds us on real scenes. I do not know why but some of those photos associated me on theater.
