Since he couldn’t be all at the same time, he settled for the next best option, that is, becoming a miniature photography artist.

All he did was to translate his creative ideas in the form of models. For example, his creations of miniature photography cars moving on a rain-soaked road and other settings are so realistic that they can easily be mistaken for the real thing.
