    hey now

    i like this idea. movement, bw, the high contrast sort of works. i betcha you can do better, even!

    i wasn't thinking self-portraits, just so everyone knows - but this idea is just what i was thinking about.

    I like it, and just when I was going to eat some more pie, last night here.

    I do like it, really, don't know how you can do better. Maybe it is the start of greatness.

    But but but doesn't it have to be from your own eye's point of view? (Maybe via a mirror?)

    Hummm, great idea, I wonder if the left is a little to flat, or maybe more contrast?

    Man I really need to get some ideas here...I may have one, time will tell :-) So how do you get a 4 year old to stand still for a long exposure???? Oh I think I got me an idea. :-) THANKS Lynn!

    Hiya Lynn wave.gif

    Good shot... definitely does not look flat to me. My only complaint is the light area along the right edge of the picture. For some reason it grabs my eye.

    Joking aside I think this is a very good idea Lynn, and one that is useable for many of us - that is a first person of us at work in some task.

    I was a hair stylist for about 10 minutes after I left school in England a hundred years ago.. I've been with husband of lynnma since I was 11 so him still thinks I can cut hair..1drink.gif and no... there are no spots on my scissors and the hair on his shoulders is real..

    I like this one Lynn, better then the other. It's a great shot. My wifes cousin was trying to show me something similar yesterday but she just couldn't catch it. IMO you did.

    The bubbles in the water are great!!! It is hard to say which is better, they are two totally different subjects, but I think I like this one a little more clap.gif

    thanks judy... I'm wondering if I should tone down the chrome to the back left.. it looks wrong completely blacked out but it may be distracting..

    Lynn, you make everything edible look good. I don't even like oranges. I do like water, but yours, well, I would Looove it.

    Incidentally, I love the way you are doing your nails.rolleyes1.gif Understated, but very nice.
