Sometimes I feel like just getting away, like going on an unending vacation. It\u2019s a way of escaping from life\u2019s trivialities, of getting more out of our limited time, and not being locked down in some dead end job that I hate and don\u2019t want to spend any more seconds at.<\/p>\n
I hate getting bogged down with these thoughts, mostly because I know I really can\u2019t do that and I have to come up with a different solution to escape life\u2019s doldrums. Well, one thought I had was just to take pictures of myself in front of famous places around the world, using green screen technology.<\/p>\n
If I can\u2019t go to these places, I can at least better imagine myself there, and maybe someday I can recreate the fake photos in front of the real places. Maybe that sounds pathetic, but it helped my mood, so who are you to judge?<\/p>\n
I got some photography backdrops<\/a> and purchased some top notch photography lighting equipment<\/a> because I wanted the pictures to come out really good. I downloaded a lot of images of famous landmarks to use and have been compiling the best ones. Then I take photos of myself in various poses in front of the background and am compiling the best images of those, too.<\/p>\n Then, after I get all of them, I\u2019m going to start pairing them and finding the most natural looking pictures of me in front of the various landmarks, like the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China, and Fenway Park. It\u2019s going to be really cool, and then my goal will be to actually visit all those places.<\/p>\n
