Okay, i may have read the sentence to the theme wrong. I took the theme to be "miniature" and that we were to take a photo "that conveys to the viewer that the subject of your photo is a tinier version of something that is normally larger."

So others have pointed out that the object was supposed to be something small....if so...oops.

This came from a recent photoshoot i did:

On the technical side....i was not very happy with this shoot. It was extremely sunny and i had never really photographed in such bright conditions. I kicked myself afterwards for not using a polarized filter...live and learn!

I am still very new to all of this...

To those who still enjoyed the shot and the work that went into the toying of perspective...much thanks!

Looks like forced perspective to me which wasn't what this challenge was about.

"Compose and photograph something "miniature" in such a way that it conveys to the viewer that the subject of your photo is a tinier version of something that is normally larger."

The composition is good but it appears a bit overexposed and washed out to me.

Is cropping generally acceptable...

I am still new to this and basically I usually post my photos raw and untreated. All I usually do is resize them....

I feel deceitful if I do any changes...maybe a slight brightness adjustment.

*ponder*

I am just unaware of what is generally accepted/respected?

Nice placement and good holding the DoF. Not sure what's miniature - but the illusion works.

A very nice photograph but I don't get the idea that "blue" is a major component.
