Great shot!

Well, I certainly don't mind. I think I'd be snapping him too. :) Great capture and photoshopping.

Caught Twice - By you and by traffic
(Like the praying mantis, so delicate)
Leo Charette05-Aug-2005 02:05
A draw... you caught him looking and he caught you snapping. I'll bet you left him thinking about it all day, though. "Why was she taking my picture" To-do to-do.

Pete, this is great! Love his face. Love what you did with the background. Thanks for sharing the details. :)

Cool shot, fun that he's looking at you in the mirror.

Lovely smile...LOL

Thanks so much for commenting under my Pink house shot. The house belonged to my niece and was just sold so I was glad I got some pictures of it. This is a wonderful shot of the day.

LOL, terrific Pete! Do you ever feel nervous after being caught? Excellent PS.
Guest 04-Aug-2005 01:29
Great picture. Evidently it went well. He looks like he could go either way with his picture being taken!
Robin Reid03-Aug-2005 23:43
You got the PS down well. I like it that you sometimes shoot out of your car window! It makes this sooo much simpler, doesn't it. And the biker 'made' you.

The green what-ever-it-is also 'made' you. Looks a like an all wet squishy creature which deserves to be photographed (which you did a good job of doing) but not eaten! ;-)
