Below is a live squirrel wearing sunglasses, holding a Lucky Coin® with text and logo added to the image. Some people think this squirrel was actually wearing sunglasses — who cares — it helps sell the product and you will remember seeing this photo.

retouch-02 A new dramatic sky and a new green lawn were added to the photograph below. The top left sky matches the grey of the siding. The above photograph was taken in the fall on an overcast day. The sky shown below was taken at 5:35 a.m. above a local London Ontario donut shop. The green grass was taken from a photo of a multi-million dollar estate on the edge of Lake Simcoe.retouch-03
