09-DEC-2006 the elves

10th (tie)
Hey, Santa...
what about us?
by 'the elves'
(MFC & Fremiet)

From his frozen land far north,
Santa gathers his toys
to embark on a magical eve
of warming little one's hearts.
Each toy is full of anticipation,
hoping to be the next to make the trip!
Warm season's greetings to you ALL
...from a couple of 'the elves'.

I see a familiar face in there ;-). Very creative, nicely captured. Helen

Thanks, Katherine. The ice scene is real...there's even a little water falling behind the unicorn's head. All the other elements are real too & were photographed as well, adjusted in size, and placed within the scene using PS. Lots of layers to get the final result here, but it was really fun to do.

Great shot for the Christmas season! That ice really looks real - is it some kind of Christmas display or is it real, and the toy animals were photoshopped in? It looks like the real Santa Claus too - I love Santa's coat.
