    Some days back when i was traveling to north through very horrific jeep rout, i was occupied with a thought "what if jeep crashes thousands of feet down" and i was like "okay, i will at least try to protect my index finger which clicks for pix"... lol

    Great photo and moment captured, like the conversion too.

    Very nice shot. I'd be tempted to crop slightly from the top, but that's just me. Did you notice the text in the upper left corner? "We Just Answered". Fun.

    The slump is over (?). I do like the parallel body positioning.

    And the processing is sweetiloveyou.gif!

    You know I've done that before with my sister who was only a few feet away. It made me want to slap my forehead after.

    2 week slump--it was rough.

    You know, I didn't realize until I was working on the photo that they're identical twins. I thougth ok two blondes when I shot it and I liked their body position.

    As to the processing thank you. I've been losing my footing with the processing lately and it's been steaming me up. Doubting myself and saying "is it too contrasty, is it too bright, is it too muddy" grrrrr.
    I like this processing too. I t's a big more my old style.

    This photo speaks to me. It made me realize how many people completely miss the world around them because their nose is buried in their phone. I'm as guilty of this as anyone, but still.

    Very good catch, Liz!

    Thank you much for commenting.
    It's todays reality. I don't like it, but I'm just as guilty of it.
    Glad I got a good one:)

    You certainly did.

    Photos of people texting or on their cellphones etc while the world passes in front of them are getting to be almost ubiquitous. Only a few stand out. This is definitely one of them. It came together quite nicely. wings.gif

    Great shot. Perfectly captures the last trade show I was at. All of use standing around not talking to each other, but e-mailing.
