A priceless and timeless image, Vicky, probably bringing back fond memories of your childhood days.

Love this depicted optimistic character accompanied by his 'watchdog', ☺ . Well done again!

Me luvs Wallace and Gromit.

And I am still a big kid at heart when it comes to these two characters. :o)


I do have something to share with you, and it is this:

DIY diffusing light photography

The above are results from a quick google search, using the terms; "DIY diffusing light photography". There are lots of tutorials and tips available. Consider the above a start and some food for thought.

Oh, and "DIY" refers to "do it yourself".

Further..

"Why Soft Lighting Rules

One type of light source is not better than the other. Both hard and soft lights have their own storytelling purposes in both film and photography. That being said, soft light is much easier to work with than hard light. This is for a number of reasons.

First, soft light doesn't draw attention to shadows as much as hard light. By nature, our eyes are drawn to points of high contrast. If you're using hard lights, your viewer's eyes may be focusing on other points in the frame other than your subject. Soft light helps make your subject look as good as possible by minimizing wrinkles and blemishes, which is incredibly important for commercials and corporate videos.

When shooting with hard light, it's not uncommon to have to have your subject stay in a very particular place. But when shooting on soft lighting, you typically have more freedom for your subject to move around the frame."

I make mention of all of the above for future reference. Pour yourself a cup of coffee, make a cup of tea.. and time and opportunity permitting.. have a read through.

Something tells me, though.. from this image here and that of your other photo, namely; "Remembrance".. you may be aware of this facet of photography already.

Still, some food for thought and future experimentation in case you are unawares.

That said..


An endearing image.

Well-composed. Good good natural colour.


And once more.. thanks for sharing this one with us.

I really like how you did this one, for me it's a fave! I like how your trying something different, and yet getting such good results.
tigs=^..^=

Yes but I think I was old when this duo first appeared..Nice one...R.

The quilt even goes along with the theme here , great shooting Vickie.

Great composition!, well done

Such a cute alarm clock and capture

There is something about this image that really tugs at the heart...the whimsical clock against the homey-looking comforter...well done!

Lovely alarm clock very well captured.

Vicki?

Now, if you are not entering your image here to give the other members a chance.. well, I understand.

... ...

Yes, I got a million of dumb jokes.

But, seriously.. this would be a contender to my mind and eyes.

Best of luck, should you decide to enter it.

A nice remembrance and a funny photo of it.

A 1 work.

[Two comments from +Purmusic?]This caught my eye because of the strong lighting contrast.

...and Wallace & Gromit make for an excellent subject in any posting. Pass the cheese...
