Shot for the Active Assignment Weekly Group - Assignment the Camera Never Lies, Disproved. This is NOT a miniature model. This is a 'shopped picture of a building in Las Vegas. (If anybody knows what this building complex is - please let me know!)
What it took: New camera , and obsessive complusive personality. $9.95 to go up to the viewing deck of the Stratosphere. 20 minutes to feel comfortable enough to walk up to the glass, kneel and shoot. Finding some "tilt-shift fakes" on Flickr and getting intrigued. Internet research. 5 or 6 previous tries at this concept. Remembering how to manipulate images in a program I haven't touched in years.
Testing the tilt-ing function of the 24 TS-E to miniaturize the food court of the Westfield mall located on Market Street, San Francisco.
The gingerbread village is a Christmas tradition at the Henry Ford Museum. The buildings are made from a wide variety of candies and other edible materials (for example, pretzels for log houses) and many are replicas of the buildings in Greenfield Village.

Musketeer miniatures. These are painted to represent the Dal(caria) regiment as (part of) it appeared at Poltava. This is of course a Work in progress picture. Two grenadiers need to be added to each of these bases, as well as an extra pike / command base.

Mary made these from a tutorial she described elsewhere. Since they have had so many views, I thought an even closer photograph might be interesting so here it is.

1987 - Yugoslavia - Triglav - miniature version - easy for Jackie to climb!
The sign says Maketa Triglava - which translates I think to stone model of Triglav.
The model is situated in Ribčev Laz near Lake Bohinj. Triglav is the highest mountain in Slovenia.The model is the work of the painter Valentin Hodnik (1896-1935), an artist from Bohinj.
The model was erected in 1931-1932, and three tons of stones were placed on the site, which is the weight of two average cars at the time.
Two of the carriages for the miniature railway that runs from Peasholm Park to Scalby Mills, Scarborough HDR
This 10 1/4" gauge miniature railway operated from 1996 to 2004 and offered a half-mile return trip beside the lake. Most trains were hauled by an American-style loco named 'Nevada' which was built by Arnold Bimpson in 1995. Bimpson also built the turntable and all the points.
Most of the aluminium track had previously been used on the Sandham Castle Railway in Sandown, Isle of Wight. Most of the steel track came from the Wells & Walsingham Railway.
The 4 passenger carriages were built by Fairweather Engineering.
Nevada is now on the Ropley Miniature Railway
This small vise was cute it had to follow me home. The exact size of this vise can only be grasp in comparison with a matchbox. With the jaws closed the length of this tool is no more than 6 inches from vise screw to the end of the anvil.
The vise has no makers marks but my guess is it was made for jewelers.
Red mallee burl was used for the bowl. Quarter sawn ziricote with nice bees-wing figure used for the foot and lid. Ebony for a very bad finial. I have to try and fix it free hand.
total height is 3/4" and 3/4"wide
In the process of converting these scavvies back in 2006 I tought myself how to sculpt in miniature. These were done with a dremel, greenstuff, spit and a toothpick.
this miniature buddhist garden is a marvel! it's scope, grandeur and intricacy can't be captured in photos. most noticeable is the sweet sound of many tiny waterfalls, even in the lighted shrine under the stairs. i've been visiting it for over 5 years and always come away feeling enriched and yes, at peace.
it's located right in front of a private, modest house, on either side of the front entrance. it seems to go on forever. i've never met the creator/s and wonder when they tend to it because they never seem to be around. they must know how aprreciated this richness & artistry is by the many people who walk by. of course, to receive this gift, one has to walk.
Continuing our miniature Oribana project... and here is our mini-oribana called CAPRICE from the Oribana Delight collection.
The vase is just 2 inches (5 cm) high and the whole Oribana arrangement is just 4.5 inches (11cm) high.
The starring paper plants designed by Katrin are Orchid Pleione, Daisies, Yellow Lobelias and Pine Tree's Branch. The container design is Vase 'Caprice' by Yury. Used wonderful Japanese papers for plants and Swedish paper for the vase.
Note for origami enthusiasts: The step-by-step diagrams on how to fold the composition are published in our ORIBANA DELIGHT

This picture is a miniaturized copy of an illustration that Northern Tissue Co. used in their Saturday Evening Post ads in the late 1950’s and into the 1960’s. Most of us who are over 40 years old will remember these pictures from our childhood. You could send in labels from the products and receive 11 x 14 inch prints by return mail. I remember them hanging on our bedroom walls when I was a child. They have become classics.
We have framed it in a white wooden frame and covered it with thin plastic glass. The frame is white with a pink ribbon highlight which brings out the pink in the photo. You will also find others in our Etsy shop. Look for other listings featuring different children. The frame measures 1 ½” x 1 ¼”.
