CH48 Eye Phone . . . Can You See Me Now?

skufuku

I've been working on this for a week and finally I think I have one I can post without embarrassing myself. Tell me what you think and what I might do to make it better. The biggest problem I'm having is getting the eye to look good; I've come to the conclusion that you can only pack so much resolution in such a tiny photo 128X128. Of course if I could Photo Shop I could make it perfect. Any suggestions?

Great idea

Have you tried more of your face, perhaps with a finger to your mouth (Shhhhhhh don't tell anyone I'm in the phone) type of thing? Or the L "loser" sign,

I think your face would personalize it better, or how about a "confidential or top secret" phone photo?

Just offering up a few more suggestions for brain storming... great idea!

I think the eye looks pretty good considering it is on a cameraphone. It does look a little washed out. Could you try taking the eye picture in a room with a diffrent spectrum of light? If you can find a light source that is close to daylight(6500k) it might look a bit warmer

I like the idea, perhaps try and lay the phone down therefore removing your hands from the picture. It may also enhance the picture to have a black or dark background. Play around withy different pictures on the screen, you could convey different messages with certain pictures:

I like the eye though

Thanks guys for the help. I wish I could respond quicker and post more often. Any way I've tried a couple more tell me what you think. Have I made it better or worse? Is this the right direction to take? I would change the title to BIg Brother, you know the George Orwell's novel "1984" theme.

Nice shots. I like the direction better than the original. I like the first and the 3rd. The middle one seems to me....a compromise of either of the others. I think I'm leaning slightly towards the first one for some reason. Perhaps more "pop" (clarity/color/composition) IMO.


Good luck

Thanks Birdman I was leaning towards the first myself. Thanks again.
