Panasonic LZ5 and a 60W bulb

Dude that is a great shot. Never shave!

Wow thanks !
I didn't think it was great by any means.
I did fiddle about a bit in Lightroom because the LZ5 colour balance is a little iffy.

Nice posts, all. I have been meaning to try and get some more formal self-portraits done but never get around to it, so, here I go in a car window . . .

Love these new ones Adina!

The second one looks like you could literally snap my head off in one clean stroke

Flying knife chop coming your way.

I've been taking care of my sick daughter and wife the last few days. I really like the shot Gary, I'd keep it the way it is, maybe sub out the cam for the .44 automag Clint used in one flick. By the way, when it was kept clean, the .44 automag was a sweet shooter.

Adina, you have gorgeous eyes, and the shots are great too. My eyes only look that big when shot through the right part of my tri-focals. Did you go to the seminar yet? How was it?

You guys are right, about time for Speed and Rick to enter the fray.

I have been taking self portraits for this thread and I haven't liked a single one yet. Heh, imagine that!

Hi everyone! Nice to see your faces!

I LOVE that first one Adina!

And Rick is right...the second has an intense look to it.

Question: Princess of the OT. What does OT stand for?

off topic. When I first got my moderator powers, Rick called me Princess of the Off Topic. I like Princess of the OT better.

Thanks!

The first time I saw that I thought it had something to do with 'Old Timer' since posters refer to him as 'OT' as well. I get it now

There now Adina, you see how much smoother everything goes when you do it my way?

Sorry...lesson learned...


Mike, the workshop was great. I had a really good time and learned lots. I always spend the first month or so of the year wondering if I'm going to do this another year. I love love love the photo end, but the business end sometimes wears me down. This workshop was really just what I needed.

Here's the link to the guy...

Wow, Gary, you look like a young Clint Eastwood in this pic. All you need is a 44 mag in your hands instead of a camera and you could be a double for Harry Callahan, aka Dirty Harry, LOL.

Haha! I was thinking the same thing when I saw it. I"ll respect Gary's wishes but that photo is just itching for a photoCHOP!

Ha, pretty funny. No offense, this is a casual thread . . . I think "Dirty Gary" might have had a better ring to it. . .it looks like I need a basic instruction on the holding of a fire arm lol looks like I may get knocked out when it kicks back!

Holy mother of God Gary! Your hair is so long!

LOL, it doesn't look THAT long . . .does it? your right , though. It is longer than I have ever had it in years. . I was letting it grow again ( really couldn't afford a decent haircut because of my photography purchases . . .) recently found some old money in a pants pocket and got a trim. . .look a bit more respectable now. except when I'm wearing my big fur hat on the cold days . . . .
