I really like this, Nico! The way the paper has been wrapped is very neat and makes for an almost abstract feel to the image. Good lighting, too! ~Sharon

Thanks so much for all the nice comments. Really appreciated! :-) Jim H2: No, this is one of the younger Conradie family members, but his participation was conditional upon anonimity being guaranteed! :-) :-) Regards jnconradie

Too funny! You are made for this challenge, Nico. Is this the same person in the newspaper dress? Jim H2

Reminds me of "The Mummy" - very funny and well done! CJ

Okay, Nico, are you gonna feel bad if your photos come in first and second?

Oh well. Thats that idea gone :/

Great one Nico, Very similar to one I've had in mind but havent executed yet, my model is out of town :-) Cheers, Vikas.

Thanks, Melbob, Traveller and Lee - and excellent suggestions, Lee. Definitely something we could have explored! :-) Regards jnconradie

I love the idea, but I think you should have taken it further. It is hard to really tell that it is a person with such a close crop. I might have explored putting the paper person in ordinary situations. Maybe sitting at the breakfast table having a cup of tea, etc. I really love it an it is very well executed. theFly

Very nice, Nico...the tilt of the head, the total body wrapping into helplessness(?)....very evocative. Best Wishes, Traveller

I always thought a 'paper boy' ..... sold papers... ? Just goes to show...? This reminds me of many years ago when my students wrapped up my car in paper towel as a birthday present for me. Amazing, could not see a tiny spec of the jaguar. Hope your model is still breathing Nico... the sacrifices they make are incredible. Great colours, good mood lighting... the eyes are a bit pale though? ~ Regards Melbob
