9/5/04 - Cool Shades

I took this photo a while back, but after visiting a neat designer eyeglass shop last night at First Saturday Frederick, I thought I'd see if mine looked cool enough. Actually, they're pretty plain, and I have mixed feelings about the light-sensitive tinting -- hate walking around not realizing I look like some gangster or movie star trying to hide from police or paparazzi. (OK, maybe *I'm* the only one who thinks that.) Anyway, this is the best my rickety right brain could come up with today.

PS - Extract glasses from whatever background was there. Removal of some background from the lenses. Some reconstruction of the refracted temple images in left lens. Smoothing color tint in both lenses (including removal of big fingerprint smudge!). Underlaying a complementary (I hope) color background. Framing. (In other words, this photograph could be considered a total fabrication and inadmissable in court.)

Hey, I'll have to try that sometime -- lying under a glass table looking up (when I'm sober), not denying, denying, denying.

Very nice work! This goes back and forth with me as a photo of looking at the glasses falling down from somewhere or from the position of laying underneath a glasstop table looking up. And I will deny deny deny ever have actually been underneath a glasstop table looking up.

Lots of work and well done. I like the choice of background color.
