So, today I made the attempt. Using our well house as a backdrop and setting up the camera with a time delay on a tripod, I took multiple exposures of the various animals one at a time with us and then I used Photoshop to collage them together. Don't we look like the peaceable kingdom!

Pictured (L-R) are: Wilson, Finley, Topaz, Me with Avo, Starley, Farmer Rick with Millicent, Francisco and Cody. These are the main characters of my blog. We are only missing the other 49 chickens and a couple of wayward kittens. You can even read the label on the pitchfork: Ranch Hand. Sort of a twist on American Gothic.

Wow, you are very good with photoshop. I would never have guessed you did not pose all together. Looks like you have a wonderful family overthere.
Oh I thought "American Gothic" the minute I saw your picture. LOL This would be a good choice for your Christmas card. Love it. :)
Same here, American Gothic. Fantastic job of piecing the whole gang together, I never would have guessed..:-))
Too funny, I thought they all sat there for you at once. Nice job.
Great take on American Gothic! Great card idea.
Well that sure is creative! You put a lot of effort into it, and I do think it would make a great card.
St. Patrick meets American Gothic. You have great looking dogs, sage. I guess you have your animals all bundled up for this cold morning. Snow in Houston, and in the 40s in Phoenix. The other commentor was right -- you should use this photo for a Christmas card .....bob

Thanks for visiting and commenting - I think American Gothic is a good reference for your photo!
I would have not realized you used photoshop if you would have not mentioned it. Nice anmials!
My mum used to keep Rhode Island chickens in Borneo, the tropics. But in the rainy days, she kept a little kerosene lamp inside a big Milo tin, and punched a few holes at the sides. (Mum was very innovative). The chicken hurdled round the can.
Funny, I have been writing for 4 years about when we were kids with my siblings, I don't remember this until I read about your heater.
Thanks for reminding.
Cheers,
