Photo Inspiration: Tourist Toy Photos

Toy Eiffel Tower by Michael Hughes

Photographer Michael Hughes has a great idea for what to do with your camera when you go on holiday. Pick up some tourist toys or postcards of the local landmarks, then go take a photo of yourself holding the tourist object in front of the real thing. Genius. You can have a lot of fun with this idea, not only with replacing the real thing with a copy of itself, but also putting something stranger over the top, or taking the same object round the world with you and photographing it in different locations.
