There is more to photography than just a good camera or in some cases, Photoshop. While most of us run after buying a DSLR and then spend hours in editing and adding tons of filters, all a good photographer needs, is creativity and perspective to produce great results.
Malaysia’s Wire Hon is one such brilliant photographer. “Everybody needs a hobby…” yes we do agree with that, but these are not our words, this is what is Hon’s Instagram bio reads.
Hon loves collecting Marvel and DC superhero toys and figurines and while some will think it’s childish to have such a hobby, what he does with those figurines is what sets him apart and is truly commendable.
He makes interesting and hilarious scenarios to showcase his brilliant photography skills and his entire family participates in capturing these hilariously awesome shots. He takes around 30 minutes to click every picture. Every picture he clicks looks like he’s chilling with these superheroes like it’s nobody’s damn business.
One look at the picture and you may think, “Whoa! This can’t be true. This is photoshop. He must have cropped his picture to create this illusion.”
Well, it’s not photoshop. It’s all about perspective, in this case, ‘forced perspective’. And the amazing part is that he clicks these pictures using only his smartphone. Yes, you read that right. Here’s how he does it.
So folks, while I try to click similar pictures using my phone, let’s take a look at some of his best works.
