 My sweetie & me - just sittin' in the middle of the road! This is just one more in a long line of confirmations to our neighbors that we are nuts. I think this is the first Wall Street Journal I've ever purchased (didn't read a word)! Tim's wearing my hat - that's why it looks so small on him (that and he has a HUGE head ;). Shot this at the last minute because I was afraid my spotted cow shot would tank and I can't let my team down (I still think that was hilarious - it's on my profile - let me know what you think of it).

Thanks sweetie for modeling for me and inspiring me to this B&W with your super cool "Wind" shot (that BTW you are rockin' sexy in!!)

Shot in raw, levels, hue/saturation, brightness/contrast, selective color, neat image, unsharp mask, crop, border, save for web.

Funny how the first thing I notice is those heels from "Off to work"...

You only got a 7 from me for the (almost lack of) hat. But for all the other aspects of the photo I would give a 9. It's charming, and nuts. Keep up the good work.

I love the idea and you've executed it very well...the suburban street, however, is an odd touch
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/21/2006 04:58:26 PM
Okay maybe the headgear isn't the main subject of this picture, but I love it. Good luck.

Very original.

I wish this shot was taken at an angle. But the moment is great! 8

eventhough a bit unrealistic to find a bench in the middle of the street, love this photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good old time b/w feel with a touch of humor.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/19/2006 06:07:18 PM
What a wonderful set up! Great looking characters, and those shoes! They're OUTRAGEOUS!! :D
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/17/2006 08:07:31 PM
This is a wonderful shot. You should offer it as a print! Great capture, good contrast. The b/g is a bit distracting, but the image is REAL!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/17/2006 10:23:58 AM
Love the concept and the set-up, but the background drags this down. The cars and those big chunky white mailbox posts really pull the eye away from the subject at hand. Now I feel a little guilty dwelling on what is a minor issue on a petty damn clever photo.

This is so sharp! Great contrast, mood and composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/16/2006 04:24:25 PM
Interesting concept, but in the middle of the street? kinda odd.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/16/2006 09:35:17 AM
There's my Charlie Chaplain guy from the wind challenge! Love the black and white. This has an old fashioned sense. Her shoes are killer. Great contrast and composition. One of the few interesting shots of the challenge! If I were to critique anything, I'd say that the truck/car in the background is a bit distracting, but it's rather hard to ask your neighbors to remove their vehicles for a photo shoot. LOL
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/16/2006 07:55:19 AM
LOL...quirky and fun
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 10:54:16 PM
great shot, but it sure doesnt look as if it was shot for headware....Bit of a shoehorn, but you do have a lovely hat there :) 8

 11/15/2006 08:14:31 PM
unusual setting...but I like the actors
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 03:30:32 PM
Don't know if it's staged or candid - but it's a great shot :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 02:30:14 PM
I like the photo a lot - the use of B/W and the comic nature are very well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 10:35:25 AM
awesome
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 09:29:11 AM
Nice should have been in black and white, very nice
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 01:29:30 AM
Another well done theatrical image. This character would make a great series. Good luck!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 01:10:14 AM
Seems odd to have a bench in the middle of the road. The focus isn't really on the headwear.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/15/2006 12:48:32 AM
best by far!
