The theme for this week's photo hunt is painted. This is a photo of my partner (aka the not-wife). The original was rather under exposed so I manipulated the photo to brighten it. The effect was to make Shirley look as if half of her face was painted and the other not. Well that's how I see this photo!
Oh, that's wonderful! That's my favourite one of Shirley so far. I love her facial expression and general demeanour and your processing is gorgeous. I like the parts and the whole.
ReplyDeleteanother great shot
ReplyDeleteThsnkyou!
ReplyDeleteShe's a beauty, that one.
ReplyDeleteNow that she is Knat!
ReplyDeleteOnce again repeating myself:
ReplyDeleteA good (!) shot, Jams.
From the – ahem: my – artistic view I consider the first Shirley the best of the three Shirleys, so far.
Very nice these but what's up? Have you dumped Tim? (and stop calling me Shirley (Ref: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A5t5_O8hdA):)
ReplyDeleteVery nice, I like what you did to it and it does look partially painted. Hope you have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteIt expresses a discreet elegance and nobility.
ReplyDeleteThankyou.
ReplyDeleteOnce again I think I IS the best Sean but this has something that appeals
Haha Andrew, there will be more Tim and I hope Celena too in the coming weeks
Thanks Annie
I'm glad you see it that way Claude!
That's a very artistic shot and great portrait of your not wife.
ReplyDeletecool trick.
ReplyDeleteSo you paint with your camera? Like that idea... :)
ReplyDeleteShe's lovely no matter what your intention.
ReplyDeletethis looks like a charcoal painting. well done!
ReplyDeleteDigitally painted...and a great portrait!!
ReplyDeleteA cool effect and a lovely photo. I agree with Sean though about the first Shirley.
ReplyDeletea lovely portrait of your partner.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone. I am very pleased with this photo even if the first Shirley is better in many ways
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job Jams. I love the effect and the not wife is beautiful. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous weekend.
Liz @ MLC

ReplyDeletePH:Painted
yes, I can see your thinking on this one... one side of her face does look as if it has been painted. perfect for the theme!
ReplyDeleteWow she looks pretty and cool shot. Happy hunting.
ReplyDeleteDo you think I should get a prenup for when I marry my sweetheart (who I haven't seen in 10 years btw we broke up because we were both junkies only I couldn't stoppit)... I am going to be a multimillionaire bestselling novelist you see and don't want her just marrying me for my money. She can have every penny when I kick the can, of course
ReplyDeleteThanks Gengen. Gleds it my be a good idea if you become rich and famous!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you took a lot of time getting this picture.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
Hmm... I appreciate the artistic value, but I hope for your sake that you get an OK before publishing her pics ;-)
ReplyDeleteActually it's a beautiful photo Jams and I'm sure she loves it.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful portrait. It does look like it's painted. I should try it. :)
