What was I thinking?

I belong to a group called 52Frames. I copied this directly off of their page to explain it better.
"52Frames offers a guided weekly photography challenge, designed to help you improve your skills.Every week, we send you a new assignment. You have 7 days to take your shot and share it with the community. Together, we give feedback and guidance to help you grow. Oh, and it’s totally free."
This past week's challenge was to create a scene from a movie. My  oldest  grandson reminds me of Mcacauly Caulkin, so I asked him to help me out and to try to make a scene with a "Home Alone vibe." The above image is the one I went with. There wasn't much of a choice because of the chaos that ensued. Here is a little behind the scenes of the session.

This is in my daughter's living room. I purchased a mirror at Walmart because I knew I would need to have one at my grandson's level. The fireplace screen was to be a makeshift towel rack. I used my constant lights to light the scene. All the pictures I looked up from the movie had harsh lighting, so I tried to mimic that.

This one was would have been a contender except for the 2 little brothers who decided to be part of the scene.

Mirrors are just too much fun for little ones and here is where everything fell apart.

I gave up and just went with what ever they wanted to do.

Which turned into "Titanic"

Then just free form...

Brotherly love?

Finally, Luke wanted a go at it. Not bad. I may not have gotten what I hoped for, but it was worth all the fun we had and the memories we made.
