Beautiful shot but somehow... I can't imagine why, but I would expect to see you or even just a part of you in this.

Thought of taking a photo of my kids and giving it the title "Spencer and Grace's Mom" but it figured I'd get beaten up for it. Congratulations on taking a step in a different direction.

Gotta be either Bearmusic or Zueszen... a little too deep for us simple picture-takers. I really have a hard time seeing this as a self-portrait.

Incidentally, you CAN'T see the "finger" folded under; look at the other fingers, the same "web" under the finger shows the same shadow on them...

A lot of people didn't catch the humor of the purposeful fakeizing in mine, either (some people take stuff sooo seriously, don't they?). I love the border.

To all who asked, it's jalapeno sauce, not ketchup. The pain came when I licked it off my dinger. This was a last-minutes shot, I'd just downloaded NeatImage and wanted to play with it. Wasn't meant to be taken seriously and it wasn't...

If anything, I see it as a sort of tongue-in-cheek homage to the old B-film slasher movies...

The border was fun to do, I wanted a "slipped" feel to the whole thing.

Thanx all to those who commented.
