Macau-based web designer Varun Thota has a fun, imaginative photo series called ‘#mytoyplane’ that shows a toy plane soaring in the sky.
Guided by his hand, the toy plane can be seen weaving through “skyscrapers, city streets and the Macau countryside”.
According to Thota, he was inspired by the ‘#putaplaneonit’ hashtag and started the series after his father found an “Airbus A330” toy plane inside a Kinder chocolate egg. “A lot of the photos using that hashtag are quite amazing and it was interesting to see how people even blended in photos of planes with insane backgrounds,” he told Instagram in a blog post. “I wanted to do something similar, and the idea of using the perfectly sized Kinder Egg planes with someone holding it to add perspective was what I decided to try.”
“The thing I enjoy most about the series is how fun it is to include other people in it,” he added. “It’s always fin to show people the plane, tell them the story and then ask them for a helping hand in taking the shot.”
