Nails

Sometimes you just gotta laugh.
Playing around w/ different body parts, eventually ended up painting my nails Red Hot-actually wanting to show my fingernails, which I quit biting after 48 years, cold turkey, after eye surgery.
This was a lot harder than I thought, but when my legs showed up I couldn't stop laughing.The lengths we'll go for a PaD.
Funniest thing is the looks I'll get at work tomorrow. They won't believe me when I say it was another boring night at home.


other sizes: small medium original auto

It's almost seven months later and I still laugh at your antics, or as Liza says, your "padantics"!

Fun photo,Karen!!! LOL
Guest 20-Aug-2004 21:27
I like this photo.
I would love to put on polish...but I have ugly feet, and also...I never let my nails grow. :(
Guest 20-Aug-2004 18:13
What a fun picture! And kuddos to you for kicking the nailbitting habit!
Guest 19-Aug-2004 06:28
hehe, would love to see a picture of you shooting this picture lol
You sure did a great job with the painting and I love the matching ring :-)

BTW . .congrats on quitting the nail biting . . and your teeth will appreciate it too!
virginiacoastline19-Aug-2004 03:09
how many hadns do you have??? two for painting nails & one forholding the camera?!?! This is a VERY fun picture Karen!! LOL!
Cindy18-Aug-2004 21:05
Nice paint job girl, and wow, what color, that is great for crossing the street with, cars are sure to stop. hehehehe.
Anne Young18-Aug-2004 21:05
Great color! I can just imagine how funny it would've been if someone had walked in while you were trying to shoot this :)
Karen Leaf18-Aug-2004 18:03
I was wondering if my Power Thumb would escape detection! This thumb has magic powers, except when exposed to Red Hot polish; I try to keep it clean at all times :0. It's pretty easy to do, since I ALWAYS forget to polish the right thumb (big sheepish grin).
gary becker18-Aug-2004 14:22
Really a fun image... but what happened with your right thumbnail? Run out of polish?
Guest 18-Aug-2004 13:55
Karen, from the thumbnail this looks great, but I am having a hard time getting the big picture to come up....is it something I am doing, or are other people having problems with this too???
BTW: Congrats on not biting the nails, I fought that for years too...and every once in awhile...I resort back to may old habits...like when I get nervous. Maybe you will do better!! LOL Love the color!! :)
Neda Atash18-Aug-2004 13:09
All I can say is HOW???
Gayle P. Clement18-Aug-2004 09:37
Great Karen and lots of fun. I can just imagine the camera. Your nails look great.
Jude Marion18-Aug-2004 05:25
Karen, you could start a whole series here ... using different colours on your nails! thsi colour is fantastic! Congrats on teh nail biting thing!
Guest 18-Aug-2004 05:02
Don't you just love PaD? Much fun!!!
jude18-Aug-2004 03:38
Great colors - creative set up! lol..
Carmen18-Aug-2004 03:13
What fun! Those are hot! I love the mind-bending perspective that almost made me bump my nose against the screen going, "Wha....?"
Guest 18-Aug-2004 02:16
That`s why this project has lot of fun inside!!! I guess you had your camera holding with your mouth.
petesie18-Aug-2004 02:15
Karen, I can't get the picture of you taking this photo out of my head, and I can't stop laughing. What fun you are!
Dennis Croteau18-Aug-2004 02:07
Exactly how many shots did it take?...lol
And your nails look great!
snootydog18-Aug-2004 01:59
I think you might just be a lunatic Ms Karen... you padantics are award winning for sure. When I first saw the thumbnail for this shot I thought it was an orangutan, but then I saw it was you. I don't mean that to sound insulting as it did, but rather just that I saw this long arms and legs altogher. Okay, okay... I'll shut up. This is a fun shot.
Kenneth Zimmerman18-Aug-2004 01:17
Great shot, I just took on of my daughter that is almost the same. Check it out athttp://www.pbase.com/image/32685457
laine8218-Aug-2004 01:14
That should have read, " I HAVE this picture of you... " Think I got excited at finally getting your page to open for me....took about five minutes, however it was worth the wait for such a good fun picture.
Rick18-Aug-2004 01:12
Wow - the things we'll do for PaD indeed!
This is hilarious!
I couldn't figure how you did it until you told us.
A+++ for effort!
Guest 18-Aug-2004 01:11
I was just about to ask how you pressed the shutter! Than I read. :) Clever! And fun shot.
laine8218-Aug-2004 01:11
Wow Karen, I admire your tenacitiy. I am this picture of you working the camera with your chin & knees LOL.
Gary Winters18-Aug-2004 00:25
Glad you explained how you did this! What a hoot. I had you pictured (no pun) bent over, touching your toes, but then, how would you fire the camera? Anyway...funny picture. ;-)
Robin Reid18-Aug-2004 00:18
What a hoot Karen. Much fun shot.
Karen Leaf18-Aug-2004 00:13
Think this one was on my knees, on timer, with my chin keeping it steady. A good thing no one walked in :)
Guest 18-Aug-2004 00:08
Red Hot for sure! But.... how did you press the shutter???
