wow talk about a different way of life .. not only their dress, but the harsh country as well ... i reckon our environments go a long way to creating the ppl who live in them .. like the different characterstics in ppl who live in different countries ... i'm not expressing myself very well here .. i've been up all night with our sick dog .. she is the love of our lives, me and my daughter ali .. katee, the dog has been vomitting on and off for 24 hours ... the vet gave her stuff, but i was willing to pay $300 last night at the emergency vet for someone to see her again ... she seems a bit better this morning ... but me and ali would be more than devestated if she died .. one phone call among many to vets last night and i was told she could have parvo virus which could kill her .. we established that her vaccinations were up to date so that pretty much ruled that out .. another vet was really rude, to the extent that i said 'are you even a vet' ... he got really offended and hung up on me .. i had every reason to say wot i did .. i should have left the 'even' out tho .. he ended up by saying that he was obviously not a good enough vet for me to take my dog to, and after his reaction i would totally agree with him ... i'll never take my dogs to the picton vet thats for sure ...
i know this isnt the place to put all this .. but i'm too tired to go anywhere else ...
and wow .. being in tunisia .. wot an amazing experience that would have been .. i havent gone on a holiday in ... hmmmmmmmm ... 25 years !!!!! .. i'm not sure if this was a holiday for you or for some other reason tho .. :):)xxx

AHHA !!!!!! .. i'm gonna make my second comment on this excellent image ........ DONT EVER DO THIS IN AN ADVANCED EDIT CHALLENGE .. you'd get a dq for sure !!!!! ..:):)
would like to know how you got this effect which is similar to my religion result ... i did it with xero soft vignette and curves and of course erasing the effect on the subject .. you also increased the size of your canvas like i did .. interesting ...
of course four fish have mysteriously disappeared .. !!

Life After Death

just excellent .. i love the way the body's lying on the road and the posture of the 'spirit' .. excellent idea and love your processing .. i had a similar idea, and did my first long exposure for the religion challenge .. i called it 'a soul's journey' .. mine was the soul coming out'v the body and reaching up, to show yearning for the spiritual .. unfortunately too much use of vignette and curves, plus increasing the canvas size got me a dq .. i'm happy, coz it was bombing out real bad, and now i'm just more aware of wot i can and cant do in an advanced challenge .. also if i'm at all unsure, and i have time, i'll ask for validation before the challenge starts voting .. i hope you do well in this coz it is a wonderful image .... :) =9
