I had been looking around my backyard to see what would be the best place to set up a 'jungle' for the Jurassic Park photo shoot. The plan was to set up a jungle on my patio table, so it would be easier to position the dolls and take photos....
I thought maybe the 'green' corner under the crabapple tree might work as a background, but the hostas there are huge, with leaves even bigger than Lawrence, and I wouldn't want them showing in the background through the jungle....
Then I thought of moving the table onto the grass in front of the bridal wreath bush where the hostas have much smaller leaves.....
So we moved the table onto the grass there, and removed the pots with the colourful flowers. I covered the table with a big sheet of vinyl, then positioned two big tree roots on the end of the table, and created a raised section to pose the dolls on, and hide the pots of five leafy houseplants, then positioned two giant ferns on either side. Then I dumped a lot of dirt, on and around the raised platform, into which I planted some almost finished forget-me-nots, and a lot of creeping Jenny temporarily dug out of two hanging pots full of them Then sprinkled the scene with bits of driftwood and some leaves fallen from the crabapple trees.....
The tree overhead created shade, but the sun managed to shine through the leaves, adding to the realism....
The kids were not posable, so they took turns sitting on the edge for some portrait shots....
Then everything had to be cleaned up and put back where it belonged....
