    Why, shiver me timbers!

    …looks like Cap'n Flint's Treasure Chest!

    Yo ho ho! and a bottle of rum…"

    …arrrrr

    Edit: OK, took another quick look…

    V. nice but I think I'd prefer to see the natural ones which you took after she got used to the camera; in the ones posted she looks a bit posed, and she's mugging for the camera; there must be more, surely?

    #1: I was a bit concerned as your watermark looked somewhat painful… eek7.gif …apart from that, I think the composition is good! (well, turn the camera very slightly to the left…)

    #2: Ouch! There go the legs! (still, she can still be a pirate with two wooden legs!!!) (better if it had been portrait format…)

    #4: …something not quite right about the exposure (not as good as the others), and the out of kilter horizontals…

    The contra-jour lighting is nice; you could have brought the exposure down even more in #1 and especially in #5

    Thanks for sharing…

    She was playing with water in her sandbox. I knew if I waited too long I would lose my lovely light. She ran out of water and asked for more, so I did want any good mother has done, come model this trunk for me and I'll get you more water. HA!! She's so good to help me out all the time. <3

    OK, I wondered what that was on her hand.<img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/Laughing.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" > These are great! I love the trunk. How are you going to use it? For kids or seniors? Where did you find it. I've been looking for a chair for senior photos but so far haven't found anything. Goodwill, garage sales, antique shops......nothing yet.

    It was actually good fortune that I found it. My boss's Aunt owns a consignment shop where I live and we were chatting. I told her the kinds of things that I'm looking for and she mentioned this. I used it this evening in a studio setting with my girls for easter pics too I really think it can be used for several things. Open the lid, put a bean bag inside and cover the bag with a shawl, or fringed blanket and then put a baby in it, have seniors sit on top etc
