I attempted to make some sort of vague narrative using these dammaged plastic toy men I found in different locations. I used my make shift macro lense that was ripped out of an old video camera.

The red figure is a Hazmat worker or a firefighter, I'm not to sure. There isn't much to get really. The intention is that the viewer would attempt to establish some sort of relationship or story between the 2 characters while interpreting the photos. I'd like to hear some interpretations. (and you don't have to approach it to seriously, they're toys after all)

I think you would have to work more on the angles to make this "photo essay" work.

I think the first pic is the only one that tells some sort of story. Maybe if you approaced it more like a comic strip, and had a story in mind.
