My 'get pushed' challenge from Rachel Withey was to do a forced perspective shot... well first of all I had to find out what that meant. Then I spent a week walking around looking at large things that might look funny juxtaposed next to something smaller but apparently bigger (are you still with me?) In the end, the solar lights weren't bright enough to show up and I raided the toy box for this little figure. I'm not convinced by the shot as I think Laddie should be in focus, but it did make me laugh so here it is!
I will try this again when the Christmas lights come out...

Please feel free to come up with a better title!!
Sorry I've been occupied all week it's been meh but I'm into December with renewed gusto! Thanks for calling by :)
I think you just need to change your DOF by using a higher f-stop (smaller aperture) At the moment we still see Laddie a little out of focus showing the depth of perception. Like you say, if he's in focus it loses that distance aspect. Great, funny shot anyhow :o) xx
