I will read the link you sent neuro and Bill W that's the same thing that happens when my dogs play with things too. I think if the toys didn't come apart then it wouldn't be as much fun.

The Helicon Focus software might be a wise investment if I can land some professional product gigs. its seems like the Lite version would be fine for me. Thanks for pointing this out Neuro.
This brings me to my next question. Can anyone who has the experience tell me how an extension tube affects the situation with DOF? Would a 20mm extension tube shooting this car have given me anymore DOF or less at f/16? Would it allow me to get more or less distance between me and my subject which has an effect on DOF? Am I using my affect and effect correctly? I still don't grasp when one should be used over the other where I've looked it up online and I still probably don't have it correct. Anyways I was approx 2 ft. away when shooting this car to get it to fill the frame.
I would like to spring for the kinko extension tubes at a later date but I need to make some more money plus I want to buy a large softbox.

What are you using for a set? Do you have any zoomed out pics?
Foam core board from the crafts store. Two alienbee strobes one to left up high with 60 inch umbrella light reflected straight down. Second alienbee to the right and more in front aiming the reflected light out of the other 60 inch umbrella down onto the subject. I have different foam core boards bought at different times where they have different surfaces like shinny and then the other dull and textured. Collect a whole bunch of different colors and then your set for small scale backgrounds.

"The Secret Life of Toys" is a photo group I came across in Flickr. This is where we get to catch a rare glimpse of their secret lives while our backs are turned. Both the good times and the bad, all is revealed.

Cool toys you all got and of course great photos!
From an open-mic poetry-reading last night, there was a gold-coin donation raffle, and my girlfriend won the 'booby-prize', which was this little guy. He makes a noise very much not unlike a long fart, after we left I had him in my jacket pocket which I could squeeze with my arm against my body to make the noise. Tried it out walking past some large groups of drunks heading out for the night, was the funniest thing i've done in aages.
Tried to get a shot of him with smoke coming out of his mouth, but couldn't get enough smoke without setting him on fire...
Lensbaby Control Freak with plastic optic, f/5.6, iso100, 1/5s. 430EX on the left, 1/64 power, tissue over the head to diffuse a bit. Home-made RGB-LED macro-ring-light set to orangy-red and a red bicycle light on the right.

Here's a not so recent toy photo but I did a lot of PP as it was kinda boring with the plain white background as it has the intention of being auctioned online. :D
