Vikas, you just made my day, week, month, year, etc! Coming from you, who's work I soooo admire and envy, it's just got me on cloud nine! Thank you sooooo much!!! ~ Lonnit


Hey, is this the same mystery person? Who is this?!!

I'm so glad you like the processing. It's always a very tough road to walk, being a fine line between love and hate, and most people seem to hate such effects. It's always so validating to get a compliment when I'm experimenting like this. Oh, and BTW, unlike some other occasions, I didn't go this route to cover some horrible exposure error! LOL! It just seemed to call for something more dramatic. I was considering BW but that seemed to really emphasize the white of her right eye. This technique seemed more balanced for it and I thought it worked well for the mood. Thanks. ~ Lonnit

I love the way you have processed this image. It is very soulful. I also like the way you have shot her face straight ahead while her eyes are gazing off somewhere else. Lost in thought.
