I hunted all over for the right umbrella and though this is not what I had in my mind - it was the closest in size. Well, then I discovered the circumference of the handle was not to our froggies' liking so the shoot didn't last long. This was my favorite of them. I used a 12x12 scrapbook cloud paper ($ .59) and rotated my canvas to give the look of wind and cloned out the string that was on the top of the umbrella. This was actually a Christmas ornament I found on eBay and it is now retired to our tree.

This is a fantastic shot, I love it! Is it really a real frog, and how did you get it to do that?
Oh yes, this is our little froggy .... we have two - Frogger and Trickster :-) It was a challenge getting him to do that - but alas, it worked out... lots of pee, crickets and burned images :-) LOL
That's a pretty cool shot. I would have thought that cocktail umbrellas would have been easy enough to find (though maybe I'm thinking more of something you could find in Chinatown, if you have one).
No freakin' way! This is too wild - I love it. How in the world...? Rofl - just way too much fun to look at. Thanks for making me smile on a dreary cold day. 10
