Week 52! Finally!!! Nevertheless, I'll continue to upload photos every week for the remainder of the year. So stay tuned :)

        The theme this week is "Furniture." I have to admit, this was a tough one. I mean really... how does one make furniture look interesting? After much thought, I decided to return to my childhood for this one. Before I give it away, can you guess what type of furniture is featured in the shot?

        It's Barbie furniture! If you got it right, then I guessed you had one those "Barbie picnics" back in the day.:) Funny enough, my sister didn't have any Barbie furniture at home (though she has tons of Barbie and clothes). Hence, I went shopping for a Barbie set. The cashier must have probably thought that I was still playing with these things or just buying it as a gift for a toddler. Little did she know I was actually buying this for a photoshoot. 

        I took quite a few photos with the set. The above image was actually one of the last shots I made after running out of ideas of how to position the pieces. Initially, I had the table laid out for an afternoon date. Then I added Barbie to the mix. Then I removed Barbie and the utensils, extended the table edges and then flipped the chairs. I was hoping that the pieces would be believable as patio furniture. However, the lengths of the grass blades give away the proportions of the furniture pieces. Here's a look at the original image and the various edits I did before I got to the final result.

       And here's the other set-ups I tried, but eventually decided against for being my final photo.

Which of the photos sparks your interest?
