Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination Reference Photographs

The Franklin Institute - Philadelphia, PA

I was able to attend this Star Wars exhibit in April of 2008 and take numerous photographs. I know many people, myself included, find photos like this very valuable when either scratch building these models or building them in a 3d application or even for illustration reference. There are a total of 488 photographs. They were all shot on my Olympus SP-350 camera. I either used my mono-pod with a flash or just rested the camera on the mono-pod and leaned it against the glass of the cases to help stabilize the shots.

In this collection are the following Star Wars models: (if you click on the link you'll get a contact sheet of each section)
