I wanted this image to draw a DQ reguest and it did within the first hour.

I will now answer the question everyone wants to know the answer to: the black hood is a pair of my wife's pants. You can now sleep.

This image proved to me two things:

1) My house is too small and not level.
2) Winter sucks. (can't go outside to do my original idea)

Focus was supposed to be soft to give the appearance of an old camera.
Old cameras like this $5.95 (orig price) model did not produce sharp images.

Cool idea... This really looks like a mirror shot, which I assumewas the plan.. 7

Good soft lighting and that old time pale coloration. I will even accept the soft focus as part of the illusion. Bumping up.

I'm completely miffed as to why this would need validation...Regardless this is a very interesting work from the grain to the sepia. Good luck...
