I was pleased how this image turned out, although it ended up being nothing like I had planned, which is often the case.
It
was to be a volcano, made of shredded paper, but after making the cone
and curling coloured red, orange and yellow paper into lava, it looked
so rubbish that I had to take it apart...
...but just before I did, I flattened the mouth and put a little house on it (as you do) to see what it looked like. It looked lonely so I gave it some neighbours and photographed it with my Lensbaby Composer pro, with sweet 35 Optic, which gave a sense of movement and scale which I liked. The moon and silhouette were added in photoshop, as were the flypaper textures.

I like that it looks like an illustration but is very much a photograph.

...and as the moon rose into the night sky the boy began his long journey
home.
I have the whole story in me somewhere :)
