Today, I decided to photograph some of the tools that magicians may use during their shows as part of this week's photo collection. Since I chose the hat from my Kaito Kid costume to be among the staples of this collection, I decided to use a black spandex and black bristol board as the background materials to really make the objects pop, especially the cards and the hat. Most of the items can be easily identified, but the coins have a special connection to Kaito Kid. That connection is that they are both from Japan. The coins are 1, 10 and 100 yen pieces which I was given to by Japanese tourists and are a small part of the foreign currencies I have collected, thanks to tourists. There is also one playing card that I had purposely placed on top of the hat,also has a connection to Kid. The Ace of Spades also known as the Ace of Swords, represents the start of a journey or battle as well as the champion of duels. And since Kid is always looking forward to being the victor in his mental duels against Kudo Shinichi (the protagonist of Detective Conan), it makes the perfect card to be on top of Kid's hat.
