i did something very similar (well - pretty much exactly the same) 8 years ago this month... not sure this is an improvement... the cord is something of a craptastic mess but i haven't the patience to re-shoot... original is here: http://365project.org/northy/365/2013-11-14
this is for my push challenge set by @mcsiegle ... to do some forced perspective... i did try to do something more original, but nothing was working and i ran out of time and energy...
@mcsiegle - voila - forced perspective! thanks for the challenge... this is something i like to play around with every once in a while... i really need to come up with another idea for it though 🙃
