It might come true!

Took enough images to make this DPC legal if I wanted to. Reflections of the screens of these things are awful, not quite eliminated all of them in this one but probably as close as I was going to get.

Usual post-processing, resize, slight tweak with curves. Other p-p was to copy the image into new layers, size and rotate to fit, also had to remove a great lump of dust which had stuck to the screen.

Though not a novel idea, the shot is something which makes one sit and think a while, indeed intriguing. Well done!

How did you generate the web page? did you take a copy of the source for the site and modify it yourself (leaving the pic in the middle blank of course) or was it generated using postproecessing in photoshop to change the way it was when you took it??

Great pic and idea!

You should know if you get a WriteSheild screen protector for that Ax you'll do away with the reflection :)

BTW nice!!

Congratulations on the ribbon. I love this composition! You did good..
08/14/2003 10:55:10 AM
A very original idea , well executed. Reminds me of the old days in a barber shop, seemed like the images went forever in the double mirrors.

Congratulations on your first ribbon, keep up the good work.

It appears your approach to the challenge theme was similar to mine, but exhibits justifiably higher expectations. Nice job, cool gizmo.
08/13/2003 12:29:55 PM
HAHAHA... I like this. neat idea! I hope this comes true.

Very cool idea. Great picture!!
08/07/2003 12:15:59 PM
Oooh he he he... It's like when you go to the hairdressers and sit in front of the mirror and there's another one behind you and you get that endless mirror thing going on...
Skin tones are way too red and blue seems too blue - is the saturation pumped up high?
Cute idea! Dream on! :-P :o)

Amusing, but doesn't hold its own as an interesting photo. Successful DPC photos should be good photos in their own right, not just within the context of the challenge.

08/07/2003 04:03:03 AM
Hehe, funny idea!
08/07/2003 03:51:12 AM
my favorite pic here doesn't look photoshopped to death did you make a fake webpage displaying your camera's output and have it displayed on the pocketpc or is it ALL scratch made? anyway my 10 for this one

heheh Very clever.
08/07/2003 01:41:16 AM
Very clear and sharp. Clever idea. Spot editing was permitted, should have used it on some of the fuzz on the glass. But no didaction for that.
