This [macro photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moment-1) series was captured by Katheryn Sande and it features [miniature people](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miniverse-make-it-mini-real-baby) in different settings. By using this intense close-up effect, she was able to make the characters seem realistic.

In one of the images there are two men sitting on a lunch break chatting while debris lies around them. Looking at images like these encourage us to place personalities upon these [figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thrilljoy-pix) and try to figure out the story behind the photograph. This image in particular looks kind of like two construction workers at a work site taking a short break.

The other images in this series have different stories to share. Macro photography is so cool because it gives a new perspective into the world of little things. The photographer forces us to look deeper and consider what stories the little details in our lives have to tell.
