Making table-top picturea is easy, and fun. IF YOU want to give your imagination free rein on something--Just try taking table-top picturea during a few of the long winter evenings. With a few simple materials that can be picked up around almost any house, you can create all sorts of picture situations--in either comic or serious vein. Spread out a piece of plain, dark carpet, and you have an attractive grassy lawn. Put a doll house on it, add a few toy trees and a driveway made out of sand or salt -- and you have a handsome country estate. Slip a few wads of crumpled paper under the carpet, smoothing it down neatly--and you have hills and valleys. A toy automobile oh the drive, a few toy cows Or horses scattered about--and you have a complete rural scene. It's as simple as that. For table-top pictures, any kind of camera can be used. It yours is a fixed-focus camera, or one that focuses only to Ave or six feet, slip a portrait attachment on the lens-- this enables you to take close-ups. The camera should be placed on a firm support, and the lens closed down to a small opening. This makes both near and far objects sharper. Time exposures should be made, using either ordinary electric bulbs or, preferably, regular amateur photo bulbs. Table-top pictures offer a w)6e choice of subject matter. You can take a couple of model airplanes, hang them on dark threads, and picture an aerial combat. Or, you can use toy soldiers and cannon from the dime store, and stage a war on the living-room floor. A woolly white blanket, or cotton batting, provides snow for a winter scene. "X sheet of black cardboard is a fine background for a night scene. A mirror, laid out fiat, makes a sheet of ice. Brown sugar or salt can be used for a sandy beach. Tiny twigs, suggest bare trees. Transparent wrapping material, properly crumpled, resembles stormy water. Place a ship model on a sheet Of this--and you have a storm at sea. Clearly, in "table-tops" there are marvelous" cnances for pictures. The sky is the limit--and there's no end to the fun you csn have. Try a few now, and you'll see.
