When Nature Calls ... There's Charmin.

Shots with toys rarely do well - never have quite figured that one, but that seems to be one of those golden rules. Somewhere is that huge list of things to do and not do on DPC, and I think toys is on the don't do list. On my often too bright monitor, there is no detail in the package of Charmin - or maybe I'm just assuming it is a package of Charmin. On my monitor it appears to be a sign floating in air. Of course, that could indeed be what it is. And overall, the shot really needs an amphibian of some sort. :-) Not a sub-5 shot, though.

Reminds me of Germany in a way. Lovely work, Catherine! Pleased to see you playing here a bit more often.

Reminds of that one shot from Jon (Imagineer). But ever so lovely and gentle in B&W.

How gorgeous! Very moody and dark, yet inspiring. And with your phone! Who said it can't be a camera if it has a ring tone... :-)

High key beautifully done - excellent detail, perfect exposure. A softer frame would have been better for presentation - the one you have used is a bit jarring compared to your photograph. (not currently voting)

Heh - either Bear is shooting seagulls or Wendy is borrowing titles.

This is beautifully edited! Would be a nice one to do a "here's the original, here's what I did" kinda thing.

You just conjure up storm clouds at will, eh? Very ominous!
