Diffused silliness November 26

I found an old hat with a veil and my first thought was it would make a fantastic prop. Images of other shots I've seen of women in hats flickered across my mind. I could do one of those - the sexy, mysterious, 'veiled intentions' sort of shot that triggers the imagination and makes strong men want to fling the woman's hat across the room, tousel her hair into a spill of silken-whatever around her shoulders and .. well, you take it from there.
Shot after shot and each made me laugh harder than the one before it. Finally I stuck out my tongue at my pretentious self and took one last image. Diffuse glowed it just because I liked that on the PaD from yesterday and present it here as my SP Friday shot.

An unexpected surprise. It appears to be one sort of photo and trips you up with the smile and the tongue ;P

The moment I saw this shot I was reminded of Titanic. I really love it and it is a very sensual picture. Great color contrast.

Love the tongue - looks like you're having some kind of fun! And the blown highlights work well on the shot. Nice.

OMG, suddenly I have this strange urge to toss a hat across the room, shake out and tousel some long flowing hair (obviously, not mine), and .... oh, dear!

LOL. i love the tongue out (makes it all the more intriguing, miss donna).. I like the diffusion to the side - whiting it out.. I have to tell you.. I was going to do a photo of myself with a black wide brimmed hat today, but I remembered your photo from before (with the gorgeous lips) and didn't want you to think i was copying..

I love veiled hats..
