Fairy Log Cabin is Complete

These are the "night time" shots showing the cabin's self contained LED lighting. I built this cabin from a kit and my partner completed all of the interior and exterior "decorations"

The Exterior shot is illuminated with 4 unique light sources, and the time exposure shot is about 30 seconds long. The four light sources are:

1 reduced ambient light from our stained glass table lamp across the living room.

2. The two small LED lamps, one on the exerior by the door and the other inside on the small table.

3 The warm lower position exterior was lit by a small tea candle.

4 The roof is highlighted with a short 1/2 second burst from a small hand held LED flash light.

Our goal with this lighting was to simulate a campfire's light off camera...with a hint of moonlight reflecting off of the corrugated metal roof. ...»

These few night shots complete the set for our submissions for a book inclusion. This house if one of a few we have completed over the years. Just because its small.... about 16" high...does not mean it gets built much faster than a full sized cabin.

    Wow, amazing detail! I can see why that would take as much time as a full-size cabin- I would imagine there would be a lot of time involved just to source and create everything to scale.

    Tori...( my sweetie) has done a ton of miniature projects. This house is just one of them. She has been documenting the journey via her flickr photo account. She has taken many of these pics with her iphone...but I have stepped in with my big Nikon for some of the more challenging shots.

    her gallery can be seen here
