Monday morning milk

France

I have extensively processed this image so that it conveys the feeling of shock that the subject is feeling.
I have used an up-til-now secret technique to convert from kodak instamatic to polaroid.
I am willing to share this technique.
The red-eye addition is a feature that will be included i believe in CS3 but its all very hush hush for now.


other sizes: small medium original auto

I don't know if it's healthy to giggle so hard first thing in the a.m.! I think the red eye adds sparkle to the shot. Creative! jstrong

LOL, I like it, it's really funny!

I'm inclined to agree with Rod. The shot was never meant to be serious. Its blown and shaky and that gives it a kodak instamatic feel that i don't want to lose. My camera doesn't even have a kodak instamatic parameter setting so i think im pretty damned clever to get this shot.

The only reason I like this shot is because it's so bad. Keep it just like it is.

Andy,
Great expression, very creative. Needs to be a tad sharper...

Paul im reluctant to put this in eligible. I did this for a laugh and im glad you like it. Its not that sharp and would need reshooting. The gag is based on the gas ad in Oz where the guy comes out of the shower and finds his pic on the milk carton. D you get that ad in sydney. Im a south aussie myself. I was really keen to learn how to get the image n the carton in photshop. I kind of worked it out cos the crop needed t be deformed to look right. The cow is to be a recurring theme i hope.

Andy, this is brilliant! A perfect use of the drink theme and i love the cow placemat. If from what you say in your posts in the challenge thread i take it this has been taken for this challenge then i'd like to see this in Eligible, unless you've got 3 better to post of course. This is a perfect example of using the central theme of the challenge and your own imagination rather than following my subject word for word.
