We arrived in Twillingate late in the evening on July 1st, and went straight to the village of Durell so I could still take some Canada Day photos on the actual date. We went up the hill to the local Museum where there's a picnic table which I could set the dolls up on....
We covered the bright yellow table with a tarp, and sprinkled some gravel, but it wasn't very effective in my opinion.....
The photos worked a lot better if I just took close-ups...

Next morning we went there again to take some hot air balloon photos. The basket has a wooden disc on the bottom, which has a hole to fit a dowel, which Jan holds so I can take the photos of them 'flying'. I take the photos, and then later when I'm home, I'd remove the dowel in Photoshop....

Being so high up on the Museum hill, gave the impression that the balloon was flying very high over the village....
Back in Twillingate there's a small local park with picnic tables along the waterfront, where I decided to set up the dragons....
And, like usual, it's important to crouch down and take the photos straight on at the doll's eye level.
I also set up Jude's family on the same picnic table, and took some photos of them there as well...
