I must say, old chap, I'm rather impressed!. I've a good mind to commission you for a portrait of myself!. I was hoping for a cubist style à la Picasso, where my nose would be positioned near my kneecaps and my ears on my forehead!. If you need me to be near water perhaps my jacuzzi will do!. Toodle pip!.

Seriously, do keep on, the painting is delightful!.

Edit : My dear, I do apologise!. Yahoo, shouldn't have a male shadow as an avatar, it just leads to confusion! You must join my ladies club!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's surprising how much shooting info comes with a picture!.I notice you are shooting in auto for colour balance and exposure!.I took some pictures recently and left my camera settings on auto!.The whites and creams,the predominant colours,came out the same gray,so it would be unfair to comment,however the foreshortening is impressive!.When I've tested a few ideas I'll get back!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

In writing a novel or a short story, write at least twice as much as you need then edit, paring it down!.
Concerning your project, I think you are just getting warmed up!. Now, go out and shoot 50 more!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Color is good, I'll know more about composition when you get more of the elements into the piece!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
