About This is an actual photo of a convex mirror in the staircase at Marlyce's place of employment. I changed the hues slightly to add a lavendar color to the shadows and then started to nudge them around, blurring and bending until I recognized a shape forming. Once I saw it, I worked to make it more and more clear until all the shadow was pushed into the shape you see . . . during this time, she was photographing as well.

Dave:

You never imagined me in a dress?? Come on now . . . really? Hehehehee . . . you're funny.

Can you believe I didn't see that offending speck until you mentioned it?? Nobody else mentioned it either!! I would certainly have eliminated it . . . wait a minute . . . That's the pull string ring . . . you pull the string and she says "What would you like for dinner, sweetheart?" or "Can I get you anything Dear?"

LoL!

As to her shot . . . it wasn't one of me . . . there's a link to it in her portfolio higher up in the comments! I can only imagine what she might have done . . . and shudder.

Thanks for commenting . . . it was fun!

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Very creative idea, Doyle. Usually when you see this, the photographer is holding the camera. I guess I never imagined you in a dress, so it took me a moment to realize how this was done. I might have cloned out that spec between her head and her shadow. She seems to have the 'spirit of an angel overlooking'. Did her pic show the same thing of you? Ha ha.

PS: Sheila . . . I'm assuming PS Elements . . . If so, any questions you have about it - well . . . one option is to just send them to the e-mail address in my bio and I'll see if I can help. If not . . . :P . . . I guess then you're on your own about help from me!! (Just an offer).

:)

Not to worry Sheila . . . I'm not either! I just got very lucky and play around a LOT with my RAW files so I can learn.....and learn I have! You should be very good at it in no time too . . . I'm sure!

Thanks Susie . . . I was going to try a subtle monster about to bite my wife in the head but thought better of it . . . you know . . . self-preservation and all. The angel developed almost as a suprise.

Thanks MQ
---she was modeled after an angelic version of Lorelei in the LOTR trilogy and DID turn out to be a great model!
---LoL! Gotta love what the funky mirrors do for us though, huh?

Thanks Ray!

... we do, indeed, go pretty much everywhere with them . . . and enjoy ourselves immensely too! She used to say, "Why are you taking that? (camera)" and I'd mention that if I didn't a UFO would certainly land nearby and I'd be missing out! Now that she's gotten into this . . . she never asks! :)

---Glad to hear you had a busy weekend . . . and hope that means a fun one too.

---We went to the La Brea Tar pits this weekend!

Thanks Fadel...it's not really pink framing . . . it's the wall with a lavendar hue added to the color . . . The circle was just a mirror hanging on the wall. The shot my wife was taking at the time is in her portfolio (see above message) and gives you some idea. I appreciate the comments from a fellow artist like yourself very much!

Thanks for the comment Cathy. I'm at work right now so don't have the image with me but you can see the shot taken by my wife in her portfolio at http://www.usefilm.com/image/1139019.html.

A different view, since I was at an oblique angle . . . but you get a good idea of what the
stairwell situation is!
