Donna -- This is the picture we used on last year's Christmas card. The Pooh bear is an actual wooden bear about 8 inches long with movable arms & legs. I positioned him sitting on a branch near a nice round ornament and then set the camera on a tripod to shoot the image using the timer so that I could get out of the frame. The only post-processing that I did was to easily clone out the reflection of the camera & tripod in the center of the ornament. We loved how it came out because it somehow makes the room appear about three times bigger than it really is!
Alison, Scott, & Mandy -- Thank you, and I hope you had a Merry Christmas, too.
