Unusual request....need some background pics

Post by Dr.Minimizer » Tue May 25, 2021 4:49 am

So I have done several photocomics over on my DeviantArt page (https://www.deviantart.com/the-minimizer), as well as a bunch of collages. These all use backgrounds and static imagery from places I have easy access to, like my basement and computer room. The trouble is I'm running out of new places to use for settings, and as you can imagine, asking friends and family (who have no idea I'm into SW) to let me into their office or whatever to take a few dozen photos would not go over well. Furthermore, while there are plenty of generic office type pics available online, most don't have the kind of low angles and zoomed-in positions that I typically need.

So do any of you out there in SW-land work in an office or some similar place where you can potentially take a few dozen pics (using any smartphone, professional cameras not required) at various angles for use in collaging? I wouldn't need anyone to appear in any of the photos...they are strictly background material, although I may ask for the occasional hand or foot as well (only if you're okay with that, though). I've attached a couple of examples of the sort of things I'd be looking for. Anyone who can help, please contact me with a private message. Thanks!

Hi Minimizer! I took a few pics, what do you think? Let me know if you use them. I might use them too.

Thanks! Not sure I'll be able to use these...I was hoping for something indoors, like an office setting. However, now you have me thinking about some kind of beach scenario...and if you're regularly able to visit the beach you have my envy!

Now, I wonder if there's a geocache in that guardrail...?
