I myself really like the photo(s) with the torn piece of paper held up to the photo and to draw that in with a funny sketch of that portion of the photo :-) Might give that a try for real if I can work out the camera settings for that. Suggestions welcome ;-)

I love these kinds of shots, but for whatever reason I have never though to try and take one..

I have tried the drawing on a piece of paper and holding it up. Didn't turn out so well for me.

I'd love to try and come up with that stuff! it's so clever and these examples are great! My favorite is the giant pigeon!

Those are really neat photos--I've seen some like them here on 365 too. That might be fun to play with for a Theme...

I love taking shots like this. I've taken shots of my kids holding up the Washington Monument and I have one each of them holding the other in their hand. Oh, and I also have my husband holding up a big rock in South Dakota. I've never posted any of them on 365. I have to bookmark this one so I can use some of the ideas.
