LOL. I really like this entry for the contest of Two. These fellows remind us of the magic that is right in front of us Great lighting and focus. A wonderful scene for the contest. Best of fortune in the contest ~ Steve

P.S. Just as a note: the 'there' in counting there gold should be 'their' instead of 'there'. English is such a tough language to interpret ; ) Great entry.

Hi Lilypad,
glad you enjoy them as you would think they would be the same but a different painter and molds must have been off a bit.
yes it is funny as I thought of my twin with me being taller and heavier but the height is the difference.. :-).
glad you enjoy is and look into the details and the kind review.
Wishing You and All a Happy New Year. :-)

ron

Comment from Zilyram
Cute little leprechauns and I like the way you have placed them on a green background so it doesn't compete against them. Nicely focused and lighting is good. :) Mary

Comment from RuJPmore
A whimsical photo of a pair of Leprechaun brothers counting their gold and they seem so serious about getting their count correct and accurate. Certainly no one would dare steal their gold. Thanks for sharing your photo.

Comment from MKFlood
well you did a good job on the close up capture. the clarity is great. the angle of the shot of the dual leprechauns is great. the capture of the light is great. nice choice for background. follows theme with the figures and helps them stand out as well.wink. the image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall

This background is perfect for your subjects. Your focus on both is very crisp and all the details stand out well. These are cute little figurines.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
A cute & candid capture!!
Subtle illumination.
Fine features & textures.
They are counting their gold coins for the Year of the Golden Rooster!
I like their dreamy, drowsy eyes.
Verdant backdrop is visually soothing.
Best of luck in the contest!
Thanks for sharing...
