I got bored today, so I went out and built some snowmen in the front yard.

Gotta love the red Mohawk, eh?

And my favorite. Snow doesn't seem to effect the game when it's snow men.

    It's nice to hear you all chuckle. rolleyes1.gifThey were a blast to make. And if you look really close, the mouth of the blocker is an inset lens hood in the last one, and a Canon lens hood AND lens cap in the others. And American Eagle hoodies! Thanks for the kind comments.

    Very creative and funny shots. I show my wife a few shots a week from the forum and she liked these a lot. I would agree that these are ready for next years Christmas card. I would even send a sample to Hallmark or American Greeting to see if you can get it published! I think they are that creative! thumb.gif

    Find a rep and get those shots into a card publishers hands!

    Priceless - the captions possibilities endless.
    Would love to hear from you on my blog, or website!

    Very creative. Love it. I've been outside capturing the neighborhood snowmen but, honestly, I do wish all this snow in the NW would be gone! We've got 18" on the ground here in NW Oregon with more expected tomorrow.

    Ditto on the Christmas card idea--you oughta get these published for sure. I'm still laughing. And as a former basketball player (in my younger days) and one who loves snow, #4 really did it for me--LOVE it!!
