May 25: Is that me?

After yesterday's rant on the lack of basic digital cameras, today I was messing around with the fixed 24mm lens, manual mode, trying out various metering techniques. Just to see what would happen. I liked this one, although I hardly recognise myself!


other sizes: small medium original auto

You look like somebody famous here, but God knows who.
A bit like Tony Hawks.
Gary 26-May-2004 10:46
Look perfectly normal to me, if a little calm!
Guest 25-May-2004 22:31
Yep the eyes are kind of "wacked" but the detail in the face is excellent!
jude25-May-2004 20:53
See I think the eyes look exactly like you. The rest - not so much. Does this mean i think you usually have crazy eyes? no.. it means you have the CAPACITY to have them..

kidding...lol

Very nice tones in this b&w, nice cropping as ell.
Guest 25-May-2004 20:51
Stunning
Paul Walters25-May-2004 20:33
You're eyes look CRAZY! Add the shadows and so forth, and you've managed to come up with a very interesting, yet dark, look! :)

Great textural shot David
Guest 25-May-2004 19:57
Brilliant!

Cool. It doesn't look like you. Weird. Nice toning. Someday I'll learn that trick.
Pall Gudjonsson25-May-2004 18:43
Apart from an excellent capture, I really, really like your toning here.
Anna Yu25-May-2004 18:38
Kinda evil look, David.

So Office 2004 is out of the question then!!
Guest 25-May-2004 18:02
Close, sharp and yes, a bit scary.
Guest 25-May-2004 17:32
Intense...that seems to be the word....and I'm going with that, too! :)
Larry Ahern25-May-2004 17:13
It scared me ...

northstar3725-May-2004 16:34
Intense!
Guest 25-May-2004 16:27
just kidding :)
Guest 25-May-2004 16:26
I like this too!! It's a very intense David! Is this was the face you gave to Jeanne about the P vs M thing? ;) Love the tones and detail.
Guest 25-May-2004 16:26
Amazing detail in this! And those eyes are most surely you!
Jill25-May-2004 16:21
It would seem that you are about to smile yet your eyes convey a totally different emotion..self control?

Love the tone you used there. And yes, as a result of listening to your advise I find myself playing with all the different settings..some are worthy of laughter but thats about it. Yet some I am quite pleased with the results as you should very well be with this one.

Looking good!

Excellent SP David. Sharp and clear. I like the b&w.
