Sisters
by Hewy

Took two seperate picture from the girls. Selected the girls, filled with black. Made a layer of each image with 50% opacity and moved until a this came out.

Best viewed not too large (medium). Take your time and experience how your eyes move from one girl to the other...

Hewy, Very creative image. This one is my favorite of this set of your images. I love the contrast of just the B&W in this image.

Hewy, verg creative. Nice job. Right away I thought of grade school when we had to shine the light on us and the teacher would trace us on some white construction paper and then we'd trace that on black construction paper and cut it out. My gawd, my mom had my mine and my brother's up on the wall for what seemed like years!

On a deeper level, I'm wondering if the sisters are close? If so, it's as if they're looking into each other and sharing each others' emotions. Pertty kewl. jim/shutter

This is really neat Hewy! Makes me think of those great old cut paper silhouettes from the past with a modern twist. I like this very much. Ann

Hewy... this is really cool!!! I like how you composed this and combined two images in such a creative way.
What I find most interesting, is the way the two faces are in such a position that they face (no pun intended lol) each of the sisters. It's like they are inside each others minds :-) Mark J
