A Town That Never Was

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 
 
Artist and photographer Michael Paul Smith has spent hours upon hours photographing one special town that he holds very dear to his heart. There is something that always drew him to it, and the images he created are simple, but stunning. They glow with small-town charm and innocence, reminiscent of days and decades past.
The town he photographs is quaint and beautiful.
  
It’s like each picture tells a story of how life used to be in the United States
  
There’s not much going on in these pictures, but it’s obvious that this town is nothing but charm
 
  But, as it turns out, also not real
 
Michael builds custom miniature models and sets, meticulously crafting every detail
  
Then, the 60 year-old photographer creates the hyper-realistic images
  
If you didn’t know any better, you might think these are vintage photos of a town from a few decades ago…
 
And NOT the extremely small models this man built
  
He started building these models as an exercise. He wanted to practice his craft and also photography
 
He never imagined it would be a “dream-like reconstruction” of the town he grew up in
 
To Michael, this is what quintessential America looked like when he was a kid
  
It is absolutely beautiful
 
If “ ElginPark ” were a real town, I would love to live there
  
He creates the scenes by setting up Danbury Mint and Franklin Mint die cast autos and trucks in front of his models on card tables
 
Then, he uses the surrounding scenery to make the backgrounds for the photos
  
The perspective has to be JUST right…
 
 
 
Usually the resulting photos are completely convincing
  
Even when you know what’s going on behind the scenes
  
It’s all an illusion
 
But Michael is able to make an incredibly convincing one
  
 
His selfies aren’t part of the official photo series, but I think they just add to the charm of his work
