Woke up with a thought this morning....thought I'd give it a try. I"m not 100% on how it plays.....
It's 180degrees from the concept I hope to shoot, but doubt that I'll have time to due to travel to Dallas next week...

Comments and Critique are ALWAYS welcome.

    Thanks MrsCue! I had a Brolli overhead, almost tabletopped, and a softbox just behind me and off my right side to hopefully create some separation.

    Hilarious! It took me a bit at the regular size to figure out the unique species. You could try emphasizing the glasses a bit more on the critters.

    Excellent clap.gif (Simples!)

    Over here there is a whole string of car insurance adverts featuring a meerkat called Aleksandr who finishes every advert with "Simples". It's probably very British humour.

    I am sitting here comparing the "smirks" of all 3 subjects, and I can not help but laugh...Nice Job...
    You're only as good as your next photo....
    One day, I started writing, not knowing that I had chained myself for life to a noble but merciless master. When God hands you a gift, he also hands you a whip; and the whip is intended solely for self-flagellation...I'm here alone in my dark madness, all by myself with my deck of cards --- and, of course, the whip God gave me." Truman Capote
