Nice, I love work like this, hard to do on fiber with real paint though, good thing for photoshop, nice picture.

when you color in a black and white photograph with oils, the best type of paper to use is fiber, and that's what I was talking about, sorry for the confusion. "Found" reminded me of that style. I did something like that with a time exposure of the new york city sky-line, i'll try to scan it but I need to reprint with a #3 filter. i'm more convetional then digital, but I'm slowly converting.

hehe nobody said anything, really.

but the two lovely girls who were posing for me made it a little more apparent what i was up to

and there's nothing wrong with talkative.

uhm course not. unless im the one being tlkative

when u said that the first thing i thought of was people walking by getting the impression the two girls were your body guards or something imagine that - a guy having to be protected by two girls... that'll be a first [no im not being sexist]

no thats not what i meant! i meant i was accompanied by two pretty girls who were all dressed up to have their picture taken but im sure they had my back, too!

ha ha ha, sry, i just imagined something funny again:

two pretty girls dressed up to have their photo taken, and you suddenly duck down to take a pic of an orange flower thing and ignore them

im sure it wasnt like that, but thinking about it made me smile

when i look at this, it tells me to concentrate on the beautiful things and that everything else is just filler.

truly beautiful.

where did you find an orange rose?

champlin In reply to iwasakaleideskope [2005-11-27 17:51:11 +0000 UTC]

actually its not a rose...i dont know what sort of flower it is, but it was blooming in late october and looks very much like an azalea. and its orange because thats the school color here.

thank you so much for the kind words.

I like how you blurred everything out except for the flower and the pavement. I also really enjoy how everything but the orange flower is in black & white...Beautiful!

thanks! the blurred background was achieved using DOF, a wide aperture on my camera.
