Get Pushed 279

This week's challenge was from Brett @brett101 who asked me to try my hand at forced perspective photography. I had to Google this one!
@brett101 Hi Brett, this is not quite how I understand forced perspective photography to be but I hope you will accept it as my interpretation (and Photoshop's)! I'd been meaning to play around with this inception effect thingamejig for a while and it seemed like it could work for your challenge. It was also a lot easier than asking people to lay down on the ground in this weather! You were right, this was fun. Initially the pictures I took of the passers by and the dog walkers proved to be taken at the wrong moment as they didn't fit into the left or right sections. So I ended up making a panorama of two empty promenade shots and then extracting the pedestrians/dog/gulls and adding them afterwards. The most problematic bit for me was adding shadows as I couldn't remember how to do it. Sadly when the panorama was stitched the shadows of the railings didn't marry up very well. I hope you like it nonetheless! Felicity
