The background is actually a large mat with magnets on the back that we put on the front of our dishwasher every Christmas. My mother in law gave me the Santa on the motorcycle years ago because I ride a Harley. The "snow" was rolled cotton. I thought it looked cool, so I shot it.

Wow, a Harley driver and a set designer!

as well as a good photographer.

Happy Holidays to you.

Hi Alice,

That "someone" would be me. (smile) Thanks for the kind remarks about the photo.

The background is actually a large mat with magnets on the back that we put on the front of our dishwasher every Christmas. My mother in law gave me the Santa on the motorcycle years ago because I ride a Harley. The "snow" was rolled cotton. I thought it looked cool, so I shot it. All put together & shot in my home studio.

Best regards & Happy New Year to you!

Jay
