16th September 2013 - Pot plant

I was trying to do a shot for the technical Challenge - Forced perspective but I have failed miserably!! I had better do some reading on how to do it!! This was my best attempt and it just looks like Finlay is growing in the flowerpot. Back to the drawing board!! LOL!! Any suggestions gratefully received.

Uploaded for my Extras album.
i would grow a finlay if you sent me a seed :o) i agree that this challenge is not as easy as it looks !

Well you fooled me! Send me some seeds, I will grow a Finlay! Love it

I think it's awesome! But I don't know what forced perspective is...

I love it !!! -- and like @lucypics @gozoinklings @agentzuckerguss --I would also like some seeds !!! and growing instructions for a Finley hybrid !!!

So cute,Pam!!'Like Catherine,it would be nice to grow a Finlay!!

Finlay doesn't look very happy. If you figure out how to grow one, I'll take one, please!!!

But that's exactly what forced perspective is all about -- I love it and Finlay looks so funny that it's perfect. Like, "how did I grow in this thing and end up here?" Very clever!

@taffy When I looked at lots of examples it seemed that the front object was huge against the back object. I just couldn't get that distance in my garden so didn't think it counted as forced perspective.
