Taken with a Sony Mavica Lot of retouches in PSP. Flames taken from a celing fire quicktime movie. Let me hear em. Suggestions. Should I add hands again? Bsteph

ooooh - another wierd one! I like this, wouldn't bother with the hands - can't see anywhere where they would really fit in, personally. (LOL - who do I think I am?? Guffaw!) Saying that, I would soften the character's edges a little bit so's he doesn't look so 'cut out'. But cool idea & basis for a mint image!

Opps. I already added some more stuff. ( Actually I originally wanted to but I couldn't think of a way to make them fit at first. ) Hmm. Too sharp. Thanks for the tip. I think I could have used one sharpen filter on the face ect too many. Ok I'll soften the edges some. I was trying for a forground and background effect. It's hard to tell I think my moniter may not be long for this worrld. Then sometimes it seems fine. Your coments are valuable. MJSheperd and always appreciated. that's why I ask for them. I often am too close to the work to see it objectively. Now I'll read your next coment. Bsteph

Thanks for the coment you all. It's been a couple of days since I last looked at it. I made a couple of changes. The hard part is not the coments. It's how to handle the suggestions. You people are always constructive and curtious. But what about when the suggestions differ with your ideas. Sorry Alpha I wanted a visually dense image and I was wearing dark glasses so I can't show the eyes. I'll post the final version in the gallery. Bsteph
