SP Friday-quick effort

Okay, put a teacher on a 3 week vacation..
what does she do..
lose track of the days...
Ek.. SP Friday!
(you mean I didn't have to drag my camera out into
the rainy weather on the way to the mailbox?)

Okay, no makeup, sit in front of fireplace..
Aim, smile, click.. Eeeshh.. these are ORANGE..
Play in Photoshop..
Fresco, Desaturate..
add a 20% color touch up on the eyes..
Quick SP!

side note: Linda- Hugz to you and your family!

Hey, this is pretty darn cool. Good PS work fer shure!

Excellent..half SP! I love how you bring out this effect! Very well done indeed Dawn.

Often something done really quickly turns out to be really good. It is possible to fuss with these until they're just dead. This is better than if you had worked on it all day. Very immediate and appealing.

May be quick but has lots of appeal. Well done.

There must be a real Dawn in there somewhere :>) Thanks for dropping by my PaD, appreciate your comment.

Ok, thats enough time off, now go back to work. :-) Nice work.

Refreshing, pleasant, gentle. We do like the effect and the crop. The smile is the precious final touch!

Guest		08-Jan-2005 06:13
Oh, this is really good effect!!!! I'll try it on my SP one day :) (Cor, Pbase is working fast! Sssshh)

I agree with the others, almost looks like a charcoal sketch. Nice job.

Actually Dawn, I like this. I like it a lot! It has a nice happy “relaxed” feeling to it, … a peek into your soul for the moment.

Jude Marion		08-Jan-2005 04:52
Very fun SP, Dawn!

Jim B		08-Jan-2005 03:24
Great SP!

Agree that the smaller size works better, but a very cool shot indeed!

Dawn		08-Jan-2005 03:15
I agree Chris, Medium and Small work best on this.. otherwise.. too grainy... but hey.. gotta play on SP day. ;)

Pretty cool effort. It reminds me of those low-res masterpieces you get now and again from a camera phone. It works better, IMO, at a smaller size. Very nice.

Playful ~ I like the effects too
