 Had green tissue paper as a background, with a light shining behind it, so the top part of the paper is washed out; I'm hoping it lends an appearance of having been taken outside, on some sprawling lawn. Another light was bounced off a silver reflector held above the figures. Papa Woody is propped on his stand, and Mama Woody is stand-less, so Papa has the appearance of being taller.

Once you get those metal sticks out of their butts, these figures can be somewhat difficult to get to stand on their own, but I finally got them to hold position after about a half hour of fiddling.

Peggy was a dream to work with - even after an hour and a half studio session, she never fussed, cried or spit up.

Excellent portrait and title - and all with a zoneplate! (haha) If Peggy is a clothespin, she'll really come in handy when her diaper's full. Congrats on the nice score.

Very punny. Nicely posed; light looks awfully yellow to me but that's not major.
