Steep high angle from a staircase or balcony above, looking down at a giant ship's wheel acting as the base of a tiny, detailed miniature town. Tiny houses are built on the spokes, and miniature roads wind across the hub, inhabited by tiny figures. A tiny miniature boat is docked in a small, artificial pool on the wheel's rim, and tiny miniature laundry lines are strung between the houses on the spokes. The scene is captured with an 85mm lens from a few metres, compressing the background and softening it. A street lamp in thick fog creates a halo of light, with everything beyond it fading to grey. A blurred object close to the lens sits in the foreground, keeping the main figure sharp in the middle distance. Shot on a medium format digital camera with shallow depth of field, fine grain, and a cool color cast that emphasizes the foggy atmosphere.
