Playing in the snow
« on: January 23, 2016, 23:44:09 »
So even though I KNEW the snow was coming, dumb me didn't prepare for a prime Playmobil time!  I could have had a lot more fun if I had actually thought about it sooner...

Our barbeque grill made for a perfect little sledding hill



Polar bears




March of the Penguins



Reindeer



I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)

What is the optimal dimensions to re-size these down to?

Great pictures! Haven't had any snow here this year. I usually go with 850 pixels wide or down to 600 if its not as important.

Lovely photos! 

I think that the little Adélie penguins, with their wings outstretched, look especially wonderful in the snow.

Yeah I go with about 640 pixels usually.

Absolutely lovely! :love: Snow is so perfect for playmo pictures! All your klickys look like they're having so much fun sledding. And of course the polar bears and penguins and reindeer. :love: I wouldn't have thought of the reindeer, good idea!

Tip: If you use http://postimage.org to upload pictures, you can ask to resize them to 640x480 pixels. No need to use Photoshop or so.

Nice photos I took a few the other week of my Dragon, my Caveman and the kids playing. Great idea photographing the animals  particularly like the penguins but, the kids are my favourite they look like they're enjoying their snow day  :love:

Thanks!

I need to go through and pull out the "snow fun" stuff and have it ready for the next storm. I'm sure we will have more snow. The BBQ grill has a perfect slope to it for use as a sled hill. I just quickly threw all of those pictures together, but more time and pre planning could make for lots of fun.
