I don't have a suitable shot of a frog!
No need to tell you a it's composite and they're my own shots.
It's a bit away from my usual sort of thing but, having shot this young lady back in April, I couldn't think what to do with the results. The group I shot with is fairly local so I liked the idea of joining them for a Saturday shoot but they seem to specialise in a style of fantasy that I'm not really into. Your critique is welcome, as always.

I think it's a phenomenally beautiful effort - like looking into a live fairy tale βœ¨πŸ†πŸ†πŸ†βœ¨

Thank you, but I suspect it could be! Nice to have you commenting on this section.

Thanks Joe, that's the idea - it made my grandson smile!

She's an enigma as far as I'm concerned Linda! We shot two outfits and this is the only shot I've used so far in a composite. You know my usual style of lady - this one is just a touch too fanciful. She is eighteen and has been modelling since she was twelve apparently - and she retires at the end of this year! I assume that's something to do with further education. Her dad chaperones her on every shoot. Chatting with him, he said the hanging about was a small price to pay in order to ensure she wasn't being inappropriately hassled. I understand his concern and might have done the same had my daughter decided to model! Happy to say her dad likes the image.
Thanks for your kind remarks.

Yes, "No need to tell you a it's composite" when it obviously to us that is looks so real that it must be real... Great work magnetoman.

Will you soon show us the photo in which the Unicorn accidentally stabs her with his horn and she falls over on top of the frog [lower left] who is patiently waiting to be kissed. Mr Grim of Fairy-tale fame would write it that way.

Well overall I think it is very creative. My only nit pic is the frog seems a bit large. The horn seems to be just there and not β€œattached” to the head. If that makes sense to you.

Thanks Don. Your proposed next instalment could get me into too much trouble - one needs to be extra careful when unicorns are around!

Beautiful young lady Dave. The unicorn as well ... froggy, a different story but fits right in the theme. Love the concept along with exceptional work.
