    I agree. That is a cool photo. I like how the shadow of the glasses is more prominent which blends well with the softness of the art work. I can imagine someone reminiscing of perhaps a life no longer here and having to stop for a moment to wipe away a tear or two.

    Whew!!!!! Glad you liked it. It has been on my puter for awhile.....Didn't know if I should show it or not. I could see comments like, good photo lousy art...good art lousy photo... or the whole thing is lousy.:D

    The drawing is a quick pen and ink drawing I did at Barns & Nobel. The goal is to draw a quick sketch of someone sitting close to you, and not get caught...... And get a likeness.....:D

    The color is chalk and was add at home.

    Howdy Gary,

    Really like both the Image and Drawing,

    interesting concept to do that and remain
    un-noticed.

    Very nicely done, would love to see more of
    your Drawings !!!
    Take care,

    Craig

    Hi Gary - glad you got round to showing us this one - love the lighting and composition - very well done clap.gif Your idea of 'secretly' drawing someone is like street photography without a camera :D

    Cheers, Richard.

    I'd love to see pictures of your pictures--but I also love the way you process your images so I shall eagerly await the next installment of "Glasses" (or whatever subject you offer us). :D
