Thank you

Its made up of 3 shots,

I first set up the camera on a tripod and take a photo of the cradle, Then I added a washing basket with a sheepskin on top of the cradle with baby paul on top.

They were taken with the sigma 24-60mm f2.8 (and using composition adjustment on the k5)

I join these to shot's together in photoshop and then went out to my front window with my da* 50-135 and shot the clouds that were outside at the time.. Converted them to b/w and overlayed it ontop with softlight and some masking.

It was very easy and quick to do.. Infact I done all the editing on a nackked laptop (screen at lowest brightness and has to sit at a low angle) and track pad so im glad it worked out so well lol.

I printed one out for my mother and it looked really nice .
