Be a Hoptimist

When you are green, you are growing :-)

I love this little fella... he was gifted to us as a house warming present, when we purchased our home. He sits on this semi wall separating the kitchen and the living room - always reminding us to be happy and optimistic :-)

About The Hoptimist:
The Hoptimist was created by the Danish furniture designer Gustav Ehrenreich (1917-1984), and he designed them so they could represent a new start and as mentioned above, to remind us to always be happy and optimistic. As the Hoptimist company states "One little clap and the happy little hoppers jump smiling on the spot and radiate joie de vivre and cheerfulness with their positive aura". They come in a variety of designs, and I think they are quite lovely, and I like the positive intention behind them.

Gear used: Olympus OM-D E-M5 + Olympus MMF‑3 Four Thirds adapter + Olympus Zuiko f3.5/35mm Macro.
So cute, and what a lovely idea. Also I like the reflection.

Ingenious idea for a photo. I like all the white and then this happy green guy, motion included. His reflection's great too.
