What do you do when you’re stuck in lockdown, but you also have insatiably itchy feet and the essence of travel running through your veins? You improvise, of course!

This came especially easy to travel photographer and writer Erin Sullivan, a.k.a. Erin Outdoors, who decided to stay creative indoors. Since she couldn’t travel, she instead started recreating stunning natural scenery using the things she found around the house.

Food was one of the most common things she used for the compositions (so grab a snack if you think you’re gonna be hungry after checking out the pictures). However, that wasn’t all as these also included pillows and other bedding, paper and paper bags, model cars, cutting boards, and, most importantly, miniature human figures for scale.

Bored Panda got in touch with Erin for an interview, which you can find below along with the result of her creative genius. The pictures are provided in the format of “the result”, and “behind the scenes”, so that you can see what was used and how the scenic pictures were taken, as well as an actual picture as a point of reference.

    I hope that the artist/photographer was still able ro eat all of the asparagus; I've been craving fresh asparagus like we get from roadside stands and Amish farms! That's the best time and place to get them, but maybe not this year...

    It's wonderful and the stance, texture, and color of everything matters.
