Brian Daly Miniatures Photography at Mother’s Juice Café in October

(Bend, OR) For the first time in Bend, local photographer Brian Daly exhibits his lilliputian photographic scenes in a solo show at Mother’s Juice Café throughout October. This series of photos depicts scenes created with miniature models ½-inch to 1-inch tall – people, cars, buildings, trees and other tiny figures, mostly “from my children's toys, or an old train set,” says Daly.

A photographer for 20 years, Daly recently started doing more studio work, including these miniature scenes. “The challenge is to try and throw some dramatic lighting into the scene and make the picture something it is not,” he explains. “I want to make the viewer, if even for a second, think, ‘Is that real? How did he do that?’”

Some shots, he says, “mimic a beautiful every day scene, with others the challenge is to create some tension or drama. And some are just to have fun.”
