 I had to shop for this challenge and couldn't figure out how to fit all of the elements in.

Three stores later and I had most of the elements but, what to do with them?

Bristol board imprinted with sky and clouds as the backdrop.
Rubber ducky
Moss and rocks
glycerin and water
grape tomatoes and just in case anyone wanted to argue the point of tomatoes being a fruit, button mushrooms, lettuce and carrots.
toy bowl
toy swim ring
artificial red butterflies (the red object)
string and a twig for a fishing pole

3 hours of running around
2 hours of setting up
2 hours of shooting and editing....THEN...

Discovered...last minute that I hadn't read the description properly....ONE ducky and THREE light sources....

Back at it.

Thankfully, it was still set up so, took away 2 ducks and re-set lighting, reshot and another hour, trying to edit.

I also discovered that I'm allergic to something in that moss! My eyes are swollen and itching and I'm sneezing like crazy...throat and ears are driving me nuts. I'm off to take an antihistamine and take up drinking!

Fun image. Nice that you got the duck so in focus and the little raft with the ducks is awesome. Love it!

Very cute! Love the set-up. The focus is just a little soft.
