My vision was peek-a-boo with one of those frightening, heavily painted granny's complete with curlers (maybe even a cigarette). I didn't have the curlers or the cigarette so I went extra heavy on the paint! Tried to give myself big hair but I just dont have enough hair to pull it off.
Held my face & processed to accent as many wrinkles as possible (not pleasant to see oneself that way!). Might as well get used to it...5 years from now it will be my new normal! : )
Shot in RAW. RAW conversions. Edited in our brand new Photshop CS3 woo-hoo! Selective color, cloning, burning, dodging, blur, sat/desat, levels, crop, save for web.

Do you know when I first saw this shot I thought ' . . is that Aimee?' but I thought I better not call it out because if Iwas wrong you might cycle all the way over here to slap me :- )
(Although I guess if you did I should have plenty of time to escape before you got here . . )
Truly funny shot - and brings back those deep scars from when we were all kids and various figures loomed at us
Hilarious. I think since everything is so exagerated here, that the background color should be brighter, keep it a neutral, but not gray. Or have the subject wear a different sleeve color...again something bright. (I wouldn't do both, though).
