    I like the angles.
    Like the oversharpening.

    Don't so much like the noise.

    Not sure of your workflow. Maybe make the oversharpening the first step so the noise isnt so predominant?

    I just shot a girls soccer team that did the same crazy thing. Wonder if we're alike as photogs or girls are alike as soccer players...

    I talked them up and got them to make the crazy faces. Didn't take much effort on my part though!

    Cool shot Randy!

    thx Guys

    the noise is gone on the prints but i do need to refine the process

    this kind of pic sells very well to the parents

    the trick is tell them to put there heads down and when you cnt to 3 they raise their heads and make a crazy face...works every time

    btw, the PP is mostly the LucisArt plugin w/ some levels and color balance thrown in...very fast and easy...

    and the shot was w/ the d200 + 10.5mm fish eye
    Thanks

    Actually, I think the noise fits right in with the irreverent feel of the photo!clap.gif Shooting outside the box.
    Nice job.

    Almost looks like a mixture of comic and plastic wrap kind of effect.

    Love the faces on the people, overall effect is quite unique.

    That is one very very COOL Shot! :ivar .... Skippy :D

    I did something similiar with my daughter's basketball team last year--it was everyone's favorite! I even had a family (semi-reuinion of 20) do a crazy face shot--the adults made the funniest faces, and all had a great time. Thanks for posting your image.

    Amazing effect - at first I thought it was a caricature drawing!
