I tried the toy car shot talked about in the topicToy Cars and Real Backgrounds.
This is my first try.
Not a bad attempt but car looks like its sitting on the snow instead of in the snow

That's pretty cool. Good job. I'm gonna try it out soon. :thumbup:
I mentioned to my wife that I should have pushed it into the snow a bit.

You don't want to get snow on your vette.

I'd like to try that with a Barbie doll and a new Corvette in front of my house and send it to my ex wife..............but I don't know if I have enough money left for even a toy Corvette.

Good Morning Stanlittle!
Stan, I posted a request for help with such a photo as your post. Which is really neat!
I'm in a photo class at my local Community College and have chosen this type photography as my final in 4 weeks.
However, I have to show progression towards the final each week until the final.
Could I inquire what the stats were on your camera in taking the photo and your distance from toy car to the background?
Thanks in advance.

I don't have a lot of information to share with you on that picture. I took it with the D 3200 with the 18 true 55 millimeter kit lens. I made the shot using your arbiter priority.
Since I do not have a computer, I send my pictures to my cell phone using wifi adapter. Once the images on the cell phone, I zoom in to make it full screen, then perform a screen capture. When I do this I lose all the information from the EXIF.
I measured the distance from the deck rail this morning. It is approximately 80', the tripod was placed 3 or 4 feet behind the model car.
You will need to experiment with the settings until you obtain an acceptable dept of field and an illusion of size/perspective.
It was fun, my daughter thought I had bought a Corvette.
I wish you luck with the final.
