Thanks for the comments. Yes, those are kids in costume (as a bunny, helicopter,
and bird).
Todd and I take all of our pictures with a SONY Mavica FD91. It's one of those
digital cameras that put your data onto a floppy disk.
I apply quite a bit of light, either indirect sunlight or, as in this case, a
high powered lamp. I used a sheet of plain white paper to bounce the light from
opposite side onto dark side of models. That evens out the lighting and helps to
define edges.
