Artist Uses Miniature Car Models, Perspective And A $250 Camera To Create Realistic Historical Photos
Michael Paul Smith (previously here) is a photographer who has tricked millions of people. For nearly 3 decades he has been creating a photo gallery of vintage cars from a fictional 1950s American town called Elgin Park. The truth is, he uses miniature car models (which he makes himself) instead of real ones and manipulates perspective with a $250 Camera to take realistic-looking historical photos.

His book, Elgin Park, is incredible. Some photos, although extremely well done, do have a look to them that clearly indicates they are miniatures. Others are visually indistinguishable from real cars.
Really cool indeed... What an amazing work!... By the way, what's the BGM ?
