sunshine joy by shannejw

sunshine joy

Total cheat this one - to play around with this challenge http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/21468/new-theme-danbo-and-friends for Danbo and friends, this is my go-to Danbo equivalent, and there was a glorious sunny day outside, so he's leaping for joy against the sky. Personally I was irritated because it was glorious outside but I've done something very evil to my foot (still - suspect I've broken one of the little bones) and walking for fun at the weekend isn't currently fun.

Thank you for looking and your wonderful responses. You're all superstars.
Such a fun shot. Love the sharpness of the figure; it really pops.

Ha ha he is a great Danbo stand-in. Love those background colours.
March 8th, 2014  
Ha! Love it!
March 8th, 2014  
Woohoo! Fabulous. You pose him so well it's making me ponder on whether you're a body language expert, an actor/director or even a dancer??? Speaking of dancing(!) so sorry your foot isn't fully recovered yet :0(
March 8th, 2014  
Ah ha! I see from your profile that my 'guess the career' attempt is somewhat adrift :0)
March 8th, 2014

Fantastic shot. Fav
March 8th, 2014  
Very clever! Neat shot
March 8th, 2014  
I would have jumped for joy if the weather had been sunny today! Instead, I woke up to more snow. Fun shot, Shanne. I don't think it's a cheat at all!

Great Danbo, too! ;)

Weeeeee! Sorry to hear about your foot! Hoping for a fast recovery!
March 9th, 2014  
Love this!!!!
March 9th, 2014  
cool silhouette...
March 9th, 2014  
Nicely done!
March 9th, 2014  
Such fun!
March 9th, 2014  
Great processing
March 9th, 2014  
Sorry to hear about your foot. I broke a toe recently and it really does put a damper on walking! Hope it gets better soon.
Back to the shot, I love it! How did you get him to look like he's jumping?
March 9th, 2014  
@dibzgreasley he's on a rod and stand, so I positioned him against the sky and cloned out the rod.
March 9th, 2014  
Hope you get well soon! The feeing of joy here is very convincing.
March 9th, 2014  
Looks like he is going for the long jump at the Olympics!!
March 9th, 2014  
Weeeeeeeee

Nice shot Shanne, I think the mannequin, like most of us is relived that we have turned the corner into spring. Either that or he's drank to much coffee.
March 9th, 2014  
Great!
March 9th, 2014  
Wheee! I love it. Why is it a cheat? It doesn't have to be Danbo. I am going to shoot minion, Barbie, and Mr. Metal for this when I get a chance. I love your dude's free spirit! Wheeee!

Captures the mood of the weekend. Bad news about your foot. Lunch outside with a pinot grigio instead?
March 9th, 2014  
Ouch! Nothing can be done for toes unfortunately. Hope it heals soon. At least you managed to get out for a bit in this lovely weather xx
March 9th, 2014  
Awesome shot. How'd you get him to jump like that? :) Hope the foot is better soon. No fun being laid up and not able to walk.
March 10th, 2014  
Fabulous capture. So sorry to hear that you have damaged your foot and are not as mobile as you'd like to be. I hope it heals soon (or at least feels better to walk on!)
March 10th, 2014  
LOL very cool shot, I hope you get your foot checked out!
March 10th, 2014  
This is so great!
March 10th, 2014  
This is by far the best jump shot ever!
March 11th, 2014  
@carolyns he's on a stand - wooden base and a rod that screws in. I set him up in front of the sky posed in a jump and cloned out the metal rod. I was below and looking up, so I didn't get the base in shot.
March 11th, 2014  
@shannejw Excellent idea! I've got one of those art figures also, plus one of a horse. May have to try a few creative shots like you!
March 11th, 2014  
Great pose!
