Happy Valentines TL,

This is my entry to helens theme, after posting last weeks "toy" theme I carried on playing with the boats adding water and oil to get the little mirror effects.

This is taken in my lightbox, for those of you wondering what a lightbox is I have posted a picture of mine in workshop.

Hope you all get loved up today

Cheers
Tom

Hiya Tom,

You have presented such a cute image for the Lover's Day. A beautifully created image with an immense charm of vision. Fast colors are attractive. Well done my friend.

Thanks for sharing this shot.

Very cute to see these cuddly toys back again, Tom. I like how you have used the oils and the water to create this colourful image. I must confess I have never seen a boat kiss before. Love your humour, and talent. Happy Valentine’s Day to you.
Regards
Wanda

This is cute, whoever thought tugboats could fall in love:)
Good experiment Tom, your light-tent has a lot of potential. Good thinking to use the red and green materials.
Well done,
Pete.

Haha! Kissing boats, I love that! Well seen and well done! Thanks!

Nice one Tom, the boats get a second outing! I love the expressions on these things and the bubbles look really cute.
Regards, Paul.

Imaginative contribution to the theme. Great colours and I like your lightbox!
Cheers bro, John.

Hehe ... nice! Great idea, great execution. The effect is amazing, the reflections of the coloured sheets on the water are excellent and your placement of the boats just where the reflections converge is spot-on.
Very cool work, it looks like animated/CGI - that's an achievement!!
