Heh. I had a challenge to her, agreeing with you, all typed up. I saw them as one pair, too. Then I thought to do what I suggested and WHAM! Look at that! :) |

To compliment yesterday's shot:

Yes, I know I'm now 2 days ahead. Just can't help myself it seems.

Your eyes do look a little bloodshot. Are you sure it was the grease paint?

LOL Yeah, it was the paint. My eyes started watering and that caused the paint to run. It wasn't pretty.

Day 21 for me.
I need to spend the evening cleaning and packing - I leave at 5 am tomorrow morning for a business/pleasure trip. I normally wouldn't clean, but there will be people staying here for a few days while I'm gone.
Anyway, here's my Day 21. I may fall a bit behind on this while I'm gone - will have only limited access in the evenings, if then, and am taking the 30D with no remote, which may make SPs a bit more challenging. I will try to comment when I can, though.
And Jeff, don't feel bad, my lovely abstract macro (apparently neither) is currently all the way UP to a 4.9!! Woo hoo! |

I forgot - I meant to add to my photographers note (and I will in a minute) this little tip:
To change eye colors in a photo:
1 - create dupe layer and change blending mode to Color
2 - choose the lovely eye color you wish to have via paintbrush/pallet
3 - paint over the iris with your new color choice
This method only changes the color portions of the eye and doesn't affect white or black - so your details & highlights are unchanged. :)

Originally posted by Melethia: I like the choice of muted backdrop against the BDUs - that works very well! Good lighting, nice shot, and you take much better care of your BDUs than I do. By the way, I'm assuming you're inserting a background. What are you shooting yourself in front of and how are you getting such clean edges? |
I am using a white painters cloth. I use the magic wand to select and remove any imperfections in the background, then select and remove the whole background. While this is still selected with the wand; I copy whatever backdrop I want to use and paste into selected area. I use the blur brush to try and smooth out the edges. It is still a technique that I am trying to get better at, but it is coming along. I use Photoshop CS2 for my processing. |

Much better now, thanks :) Early Thursday morning was my last semi-coherent day, after that sleep and fever were my companions.
It's nap time, tomorrow I'll see what phototaunts you've thrown at me.
I really -really- need to move where it's warm more than not. |

Cindi told me to stop looking so serious in today's shot. I thought you had to be serious when you were driving, when you're playing around, that's when accidents happen. And that was my having fun face.
I think I fixed the green in it too, Crystal. Someone needs to come calibrate my monitor for me.
