Something about the photo above...I took about 30 minutes setting up the pose after thinking about the specific poses last night. My camera sucks and seems to be getting worse especially indoors which is why I always photograph outdoors. Now I notice that when I take photographs when the sun strikes my objects in focus, where the sun shines on it is blurry and it drives me insane. I think perhaps the chip inside is going bad and I'm too poor to buy another one. So....I played with the sun and snow options of the autofocus settings. Tried about 50 total shots. The picture came together after I told my son to cast his shadow on my figures...for some reason the light was just perfect and whatever it was I wanted to focus came out the way I wanted it to. Well, it was fun and not fun photographing because Dylan my nine year old son kept saying, "Oh my God, Mom. Do you have to do this? Oh my God!!"
