Creepy Toy

Camera Model: Canon EOS 7D
Exposure: 0.006 sec (1/160)
Aperture: f/11.0
Focal Length: 55 mm
ISO: 200
One of my kids toys, probably from Burger King or McDonalds. I just thought it was pretty creepy in it’s own right, I mean the thing laughs when you yank on it’s arms, so I decided to see how ominous looking I could get it to look in a photograph. Not as creepy and ominous as I was going for but still not a horrible effort imho.
I shot this mostly just to play with strobes as I haven’t done much with two strobes lately and I just got a 430exII to replace my vivitar 285hv which just stopped working. This was done with a 580exii camera left 1/128th manual and a 430exii behind subject and camera right 1/8th power (I think) triggered by Canon Wireless from my 7D.

The lads hae one of these characters – not quite the same one. I’ll have to ask them if I can borrow it for a wee while.

I have been looking for one of these – McDonalds has them as part of their Shrek promotion. I thought they were kind of funny and would make a great photo prop – clearly I was right! Well done – now I will definitely have to find one!
