Heidelberg painter Frederick McCubbin with a 21st century twist

Upon seeing these photos from the weekend, I just had to "borrow" these famous titles! A modern twist on a famous look. The Heidelberg Painters and Frederick McCubbin continue to inspire to this day!

I love this idea of taking a picture with the same background as a painting. I come from a family of painters. Can't wait to tell them.
I'm getting lots of summer ideas from you too.
So glad Nancy introduced us!
