Well, I think I just made up a new word…although I don’t believe the Oxford Dictionary will be calling me up any time soon. I just couldn’t think of the right thing to call these three images that seemed to fit them. The idea is simple enough. I overlay a found object ( like these toys) and take a picture that includes a backdrop of the landscape they were found in. Maybe, some wordmeister out there can hit the nail on the head. This was a late summer image from 2008.
Another toy boat on the water from a couple weeks ago. Photographed with the tainter gates as a backdrop.
Found this broken toy helicopter and thought it looked good against the blue sky. Isn’t this what kids do…hold toys up and imagine they are somewhere else and real? I don’t recall if I was making engine noises too!

superimposements is not a word? cool photos, i always think the toys look better after the river has put a patina on them than when they were new
Who says just kids do that?! There shouldn’t be any age restrictions on play, I feel. I’m just a big kid myself ……
Thanx for letting us play in the River with U!
