 Well I was in a panic because I had not come up with any image for my WPL team Icebreakers so I ran around the apartment with my camera trying to think of something. My first idea was my hairy legs and some shoes from my wife. When I sat on the toilet to shoot I figures only one thing was missing ...PANTIES! heheheh

No much technique here. I used a flash bounced off my shower curtain for "silky smooth" lighting :) I deliberately pushed the exposure up and added contrast for a high key "glamour" look and used large amount of USM by various degrees for hair sharpness.

Oh my...I'm quite speechless!...haha!

lmao! That is so hysterical! Technically I love it high key, works well with the striking colour of your panties (LOL!). Excellent

I really thought this would take a top ten spot. I'm a little disappointed that it didn't.

good composition, and interesting perspective, but the brightness and contrast are killing it!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Seems a little over exposed? But I like the idea! too funny!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I laughed so hard at this!!! A tad too pink though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/18/2007 07:02:59 PM
I bit over the edge, and over exposed
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/18/2007 10:05:11 AM
oh my! I do like it....overall look of the photo is great!

simple shot well framed but the whole shot is stark and harsh on the eyes. Sorry
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/17/2007 10:28:34 AM
ugh....I'll have nightmares for a week now....; )
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/17/2007 05:47:47 AM
Great concept and framing but the light is just to harsh for my own personal taste
  Photographer found comment helpful.

i would have like to have seen some red, or pink nail polish involved in this... i love the idea behind this.

Cartoon.

Classic use of overlap of panties given the size of feet.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/16/2007 07:44:34 PM
Eww eww ewww!
Blaaahhhh, I sound like a girl now! :)

Mildly disgusting but in a funny way :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/16/2007 04:09:37 PM
Great angle and I love that pink frame. Normally I don't like frames on pictures here.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2007 07:37:08 PM
The ultra-high contrast and strong over-exposure work for this image, but I feel you go a little too far with each. Still, it's clever, funny, and a little nauseous... Good work.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2007 07:18:27 PM
I like the processing
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2007 06:29:22 PM
this is too funny... and it makes me a little bit sick to the stomach. (no offense.)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2007 01:38:25 PM
oh ew. haha very funny and grotesque
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2007 12:48:19 PM
I personally don't like the brightness of this photo
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2007 09:33:56 AM
wow, way too over processed for my taste.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2007 09:15:55 AM
Great idea! The roughness in the finishing makes sense, but does not incrase the viewers pleasure,
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 11:53:12 PM
haha Funny. Contrast a bit too high IMO.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 10:03:53 PM
Very Creative but a little too high contrast, JMO
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 09:12:08 PM
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwww!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 07:44:05 PM
I'd say! Great perspective.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 03:31:47 PM
hmmm:) that was a lot of hair dear! nice in pinks and whites, the colors look weird in contrast to the hair, and it's nice
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 01:06:54 PM
excellent idea. It feels a bit harsh with the brightness, but that's just personal taste so won't down grade because of it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 12:29:01 PM

This perspective just makes me laugh. Thanks! nice high key photo - it really works for this...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 08:00:43 AM
Cool perspective, great idea! I like the contrastiness & blown tiles.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 07:12:03 AM
Great idea, but way overexposed. The high key doesn't work only because there is too much glare on the legs.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 06:06:11 AM
Right...I have to agree...you do need a shave!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 04:41:10 AM
Good idea;)Nicely processed.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 03:30:26 AM
Dont really think this is basic editing
 03/14/2007 03:28:09 AM
Absolutely vile! But really really good!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 01:28:15 AM
Oh my god! Were the first words out of my mouth. Ok setting innitial shock asside... I like the perspective, really original idea. The simple tile is a nice backdrop of sorts. Seems a bit blown out though.

 03/14/2007 01:02:34 AM
This is cool. It almost looks like a cartoon.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2007 12:43:50 AM
