Inspired by my visit to the dentist today. SOOC. Is it creepy to anyone? If so, I'll work on it. If not, I'll try somethinig else. Chance for a reshoot on Tuesday when I'll have a filling replaced. No title yet.

    Sitting in the dentist chair definitely creeps me out!

    I agree, if you showed me the chair I might be even more frightened. :)

    Definitely worth following up.
    I look at these & hear a soft voice asking "Is it safe?"

    Huh, doesn't do it for me. I mean, the shots are very well done and all, but it doesn't evoke any kind of emotion in me. Reminds me of my past life as an archaeologist a little :)

    How about a wide shot from the chair with the creepy dentist closing in, tools in hand?

    Good idea!--This is making me writhe--I hate going to the dentist. I'd rather give birth to 10 lb triplets without pain killers!
    This idea just really zeroed in on my fears--just need to work them a little more.

    I'm with Kinkajou - I exorcised my dental demons long ago. But I know that some people have not, so I thought it might work. :D

    I'll see what I can come up with on Tuesday.

    Thanks for all of you replies!

    My dentist is so cool! He said I should tell people that this is the dentist next door. rolleyes1.gif Then he put on the mask so people wouldn't be able to recognize him.

    I am thinking of Open Wide or This Won't Hurt as titles. Slightly different processing. Creepy enough or should I play with the PP some more.

    Definitely has the creepy potential. (I don't have the dentist phobia but I know people who do.)

    I personally would look a cloning out the partial pictures secured to the ceiling to help people relax, for creepy they intrude a sense of safe imo. Or maybe play with them in pp to make them appear dark and definitely not safe

    Not sure how I feel (+/-) about the reflections on the glasses, I'm sure someone else will chime in with a formulated opinion.

    Laughing.gif...that is awesome! :giggle thumb.gif

    I can see your reflection in the one eyeglass lens, though. You may want to consider cloning out the brighter part where we can see your arm. The rest isn't too obvious. Or, mask in a shot of yourself looking up at him as the patient. mwink.gif

    Thanks, AndMan! I'll work a bit on the pictures.

    That's a great idea, Linda! With a look of horror on my face. Now all I need is a SP. mwink.gif
