Something for the weekend - Part 178 - Let it snow!

[davescm]

Hi

This will be our last SFTW challenge for 2022 so I thought we should have something seasonal. What can you make with this snowman? Will you change his location, give him a friend, have him 'walking in the air'.....?

The “rules”:

* Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright etc

* Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum "regulars".

* There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!

* The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

To download the image below, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image – please use the blue reply button in this first post. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

Have fun, and I wish you and your families a very happy Christmas.

Working out snowman version 2.

He is getting some exercise this week Dean. Does it need a little shadow to ground it?

Dave

[Dean_Utian]

Yes, shadows would help. I was trying to take a shortcut - hoping it was an overcast day so no shadows 🙂

[Jacob Bugge]

Dave, Dean,

I see it as the breathtaking moment where the showman is bouncing off the ground by the incredible strength of his arms, closer to the camera than the visible part of the ground.

And the showman shading is on the right side (also literally of him) in accordance with the shadows of the small trees to the left (the nearest pole has a (partial) shadow on the other picture(s)).

 Hallmarks work is never done. Lol

[davescm]

They get the year off now though 🙂

Dave

[Jumpenjax]

Lol... not in my house. My husband dvrs them and watches them year round. Lol

On vacation with friends.....

Guess after a summer holiday surfing, snowman couldn't handle the heat 🙂

[Trevor.Dennis]

Poor Snowie.  We should at least give him a fighting chance. 🙂

[EDIT]  Having said that, I've noticed that I've chopped his arms off!

[davescm]

You saved him Trevor !  🙂

Snowie has some pretty cool friends!

Is it true that "just chillin' " is what they like to do when they are on vacation?

The small pot and the fence invited their new friend the snowman to join them in SFTW60.

nothing says sexy festive like a pink beanie

[Trevor.Dennis]

I love the gloves and warm boots Amybeth.  Snowie will be comfortable with the cold weather at least.  I'm guessing I will be the first of us to celebrate the New Year, followed by Graham and Dean.

[Dean_Utian]

Happy New Year all. Almost 2023 for all now 🙂

[Jumpenjax]

Happy New Year, right back to you!:party_popper:

[davescm]

Nice job Amybeth - and a happy new year to you too!

Rebuilding that old cartoon.

[davescm]

That's highway robbery Monica ! Are we allowed to post such criminal activity here 🙂

Dave

[Monika Gause]

I have trouble seeing the highway in the image, Dave 😄  So I guess, it's OK, no?

[davescm]

It must be under the snow, so on the moderation basis of 'out of sight - out of mind' we must allow it 🙂

Dave

[Ussnorway]

they must have a slush fund that needs topping up?
