Amazing Miniature Scenes Shot with Model Cars, Forced Perspective and a $250 P&S

Model maker/collector and photographer Michael Paul Smith is a master at recreating incredibly accurate outdoor scenes using his extensive die-cast model car collection and forced perspective.

Mixing up miniature cars, detail items and buildings into a scene whose backdrop is the real world, he shoots the gorgeous miniature vistas of the town he has created and named "Elgin Park" -- and he does it all with a cheap point-and-shoot.
