Challenge 714: Vacant deckchairs
I spotted this pair of deckchairs on a recent visit to the seaside town of Whitstable, home of Josephine Harvatt. This could be a tricky technical challenge, but can you add a couple of occupants? High res is here. |

Animated version is rather large @25mb, so it is here. I'm becoming too predictable, but there are bound to be seagulls at the beach... |

Note: I have made the deckchair fabric conform to someone actually sitting in it; moreover, there is a realistic shadow behind the man's back. UPDATED |

Very nice. Did you take the photos specifically to fit? _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Yes I just set the camera on a tripod judging the correct angle of view from the beach scene, guesstimated the equivalent focal length of Steve’s lens to be in the region of about 35mm and took a few shots with a remote control. _________________ If at first you don't succeed then skydiving is not for you. |

Re: Challenge 714: Vacant deckchairs
It rather reminds me of Pink Floyd’s pink pig that broke free from its tether at Battersea in December 1976. The RAF were sent up to try to intercept it with a certain amount of disbelief at what the were being tasked to do. Can you imagine the fun that the press and the comedians would have had if little baby trumpy-wumpy had escaped? After his recent comments some NATO Air Force being asked to shoot down a baby trump would have disabled the Squadron crew room with laughter. _________________ |

Re: Challenge 714: Vacant deckchairs
Off topic but when I was stewarding the Tour de France one of the most bizarre announcements I heard over the com was "Stewards be aware that Batman and Robin have been sighted Please report if they are in your area" (There was some apprehension that the event would be disrupted by a protest group dressed as superheroes) _________________ I'm not really bad - I just draw that way |

This a re-submission. I made such a hash of Melania in the previous version I decided I really had to go for it again. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |
