Had lots of fun with these little guys, mostly on a wet boring sunday afternoon, Always happy to recieve C+C but bear in mind these were "fun" shots with more emphasis on the subjects than composure and lighting.

Hey man! Thanks for sharing these with us. Would you mind describing the setup you used to achieve these shots?

Love these! So much fun in the pictures, especially them with the camera!

The best thing about shooting these little guys is its pretty easy coming up with new ideas, setting up is a relatively simple process, both shot on the kitchen table using nothing more elaborate than off camera flash (SB700 triggered by my D7000 in commander mode) and a couple of table lamps with halogen spot lamp bulbs fitted.
The white background was achieved using large sheets of A3 white paper.
We've just got our first bout of snow here in England so looks like its going to be a cold weekend,If i get round to shooting some more of these i'll take some shots of the set up.

Thanks for the info! Well, I guess once the snow is right, you'll be doing some winter shots with these guys doing stuff in the snow. Looking forward to seeing more of your ideas come to fruition.
