The 8th prompt in Daisy Dayes' photo challenge, was to create or recreate a CD or album cover, with extra points if it was the Beetles Abbey Road. So, this is what I needed to recreate....
So we drove around town looking for a street that had somewhat similar vibes. It had to be a road that was coming off the side of another, because I needed a view down the centre of the road, so needed a wide open view from the opposite side.
I made a 'sidewalk crossing' out of black and white paper, which i inserted four doll stands through, and attached to a wide board, which would be supported up on my old slide projector stand.
It was a very hot morning, and we packed everything into the car, and headed down to the marina at the foot of Liverpool first, to shoot the 'Dolls in a Shoe' boat scene. Then back around the mall to the foot of Valleyfarm Road. There was a utility building with a small driveway opposite, on the other side of the intersection. We hauled out the projector stand, and my 'cross-walk' and I set up the dolls, with Ringo in second spot where he was on the actual album cover.
And then, by total chance, a white car pulled up to the intersection, in the same position as the white bug on the album cover..... so I shot quickly.....

...and created my album cover....
We quickly packed up and left. Then Jan said we should have taken a 'behind the scenes' shot of our set-up. Yes, we should have. But in 'public' I don't think clearly, and it was terribly hot. So, too late. Maybe I'll remember next time.
