Man, you are lucky! My daughter would never do that for me.

I love the photo. Great imagination!

Very disturbing and I mean that in a good way. However, not really fond of the lighting in combination with the backround, it makes the whole image seem very flat and in dire need of some contrast boost or three dimensionalitiy (is that even a word?) Anyway, gave it a 7, like everything about it xept the lighting.

that's wacky wild coolaid style! love the zipper ... curious whether this is challenge related are rebellion related. Love it though. The bit of color is the hair successfully drops us back into reality. My only problem is the less than exciting surroundings (I know it's studio but it just makes it seem a little boring with such an interesting character) ... 8

Fascinating image. I like it. I am not sure if a differnt shade of grey (perhaps darker?) would have enhanced the background?

Not one of my favorites but for the originality and the amount of thought that went into this you get a 10. It is well done and even with all the white nothing is burned.
I changed my mine by the way, it is one of my favorites.

So cool. Loe the idea. Somehow a little flat on my monitor, still extra points for originality.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/18/2006 02:38:15 PM
i would have upped the brightness color sat and contrast... no?

This sooo rocks! LOL LOVIN' IT! Can't wait to read more about the make-up job. Very cool.

wow..this is different! 8

Wow, points for effort!!! And such a clever way of disguising the edge of the cap, too. The only thing I don't like is the light or white balance - it is looking a bit too dull.

Bizzare but definately interesting to look at!

Very out of the box.
Beautiful shot. The focus on the eyes is perfect.
Just a great shot.
Hope this does well for you.

Looks like a lot of fun! The shadow on the wall is a little distracting, but I like the expression and the angle of view

That's a pretty cool (if somewhat disturbing) setup :) You know this has so much latent power and I think it's been lost a bit with the colour of the background. It's hard to tell without seeing other optons - it's just that there seems to be even more power there somewhere

Cool idea.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very clever, but not my favorite, but well done.....
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very well done indeed. Kudos on an original idea, although I do believe the background and lighting are a tad flat. You might have considered cloning out the hair on the models right cheek as well as on her left shoulder.

A 7 for now.... but I will be back to re-visit this image and possibly bump it up some.

Great work.
