Unintended Portrait

Ellsworth, Maine






Just messing around with a flashlight last night. Debated on even bothering entering this but thought one, or maybe two of you might enjoy it. Every time I look at it I can hear "Lucy, I'm home." But whether or not you too can see Lucille Ball in this blurry mess, I reckon it's broken at the very least 1) No blurring or fuzziness around objects, 2) Details in highlights and Shadows, 3) Sharp focus and 4) Easily identifiable subject. Whether these rules have been broken successfully or not I suppose can best be decided if you too can see the unintended portrait.

LMAO! Yes, darlin', you ARE far too high! What are you on? LOL! No Lucy here, but you do qualify! ~ Lonnit

Nope - nothing intentional at all! Google: "Lucille Ball 1939", click on images, and you'll see something close to the pose I've imagined seeing here (first image) - mind you you, it's only coincidental. Guess maybe I've been listening to too much Pink Floyd for the current CSLR Challenge - but I didn't inhale deeply. LOL - Kelly

Haha, Kelly!! I'd be lying if I said I saw Lucie, but I can see a "man in the moon" sort of face there. Were you intending to "draw" Lucie/a face? At least, its an interesting shot, esp. considering how you made it. Cheers, -mikey

Fascinating, Mr. Alien. I also like Lucille Ball. (In addition to this picture, that is.) I'd be lying if I told I see her here, but this could definitely be her astral body :)
