Travel Photos Are Instantly Better With Dinosaur Toys

Paraguay photographer Jorge Saenz uses classic perspective tricks to bring dinosaurs to life in his epic travel series #Dinodinaseries. His photos document the dinosaur tourists’ travels around South America, a journey that began with Dino the green Brachiosaurus in Bolivia.

Saenz bought Dino at a flee market in La Paz, Bolivia, and then posted a silly picture of him online. The photo was a surprise hit, so Saenz decided to give Dino some friends: “Dina the Stegosaurus, Spiny the Spinosaurus, and Brachy, a brown Brachiosaurus who also happens to be Dino’s girlfriend.”

Check out some photos of their adventures below!

True to life in these times; if you think you've created something new or unique, someone else has already done it. :) My first photo I ever took with my traveling/adventure dino buddy was January 10th 2012. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.335428169815019.83105.100000435155828&type=1&l=d2d2d52ded

We always take our toys when me go on trips. We have Little W***y (gnome) and Mayne G. Coyote! Before every trip, my husband creates a script of adventures of the two characters. Sometimes he introduces new characters. It’s always fun!!!

Love the dino pics, it adds a new dimension to travel photos. We’ve been traveling with Ernie for a few years now. We get a lot of positive comments, people even want to have their picture taken with him! https://youtu.be/BCmg5I8Nl_4
