Let's try out Forced Perspective Photography.

Simple idea, but it takes a bit of preparation:
• Bring a small object or toy, like a miniature dinosaur, toy car, playmobil or lego character for example. Any object is allowed.
• During the walk, find a location where you can place your object against any background to create your forced perspective.
• A tripod may be needed as you may want to use a very small aperature and longer shutter times.

For inspiration, google 'Forced Perspective Photography', or check the following websites:

We will meet at Domplein, near the Sun (big orb) in front of the Academiegebouw of Universiteit Utrecht, where we can start and walk to other locations in the Utrecht City center. No scheduled route, wherever the wind takes us...

After the walk we could stop for a drink at Mariaplaats (optional, not included and at your own expense), share our results and talk photography.

Let's meetup and have fun!
