Title: A 'gift' for Bonnie (new avatar pic)
Post by: Luis on June 01, 2011, 16:19:11
I recently asked Bonnie where her avatar came from (I'm trying to collect as many avatars as possible) and among other things she mentioned she was going to change her (previous) avatar's clothes for the new zoo uniform. Bonnie has been very generous to me the past few weeks and the least I could make to show some gratitude was a special card for her with her avatar in the new outfit.
I've designated June to be the month of animals (just in my Playmoworld :P ;D) and this couldn't be a better opportunity to celebrate Bonnie's favors, who also loves animals as much as I do:

It's nice to see the whole picture, not just the close up. Nice set up Luis! Bonnie's really deserved it!

Very nice gesture and picture, Luis!  :)9

One small remark: the baby-panda on Bonnie's lap has to get his bottle the other way around.  ;D

I love the peacock perched on the Torii gate...that is outstanding! :love: :love: :love:
Just ordered the pandas the new Chinese member of our family. Guess I'll have to find some bamboo now or they will starve to death because they definitely ain't munching on the bamboo in pots on our patio. Any suggestions where to get bamboo?
Cheers, Pgal...Keep on munchin"! :wave: :wave:

Bonnie, if you want to change your profile pic I'll totally understand, just cut it down so that those four horrible evil eyebrows don't appear in it:  :lol: :lol: :lol:

That is a beautiful picture, Luis! Even scaled down to avatar size, it still looks very clear. 8-)

Can I ask how you light your photography scenes so perfectly? Is it just natural daylight or do you use special lamps or some kind of lightbox?

Thanks Sylvia! :) it is natural daylight :D Most of them are taken in my room, I just make sure I open the window to have enough light - these particular ones were taken completely outdoors, at around 7 pm when the sun is setting. :)

I wish I had a small studio with lamps like yours! I'm going to start taking pictures of larger dioramas in the next few weeks, but having a big photography lighting equipment may be very expensive, so I think I'll keep using the same technique. :eh?:
