15 APR 04 CAMERA'S SELF PORTRAIT

My camera taking it's own picture

Gives you an idea how little this pocket shooter is
It's sitting on my dresser, thus all the other paraphernalia

I'm not fast enough with the fingers to get out of the way
but after four tries I decided I sorta liked the fingers

I don't really know what I did in PS
I just kept messing with the levels
and the channel mixer
and the hue/saturation
'Til I quit & this was the result

Good enough for today
=D

i like what you've done in photoshop! sure gives your camera some character!

See what you've done... now my camera is jeleous. She's sitting in the conrer alone and she won't talk to me... thanx a lot. Kidding asside, lovely idea and you DO have nice fingers/nails too bad you can't remember what mixing you did in PS.

Since we're talking about your fingers, how about those rings?? I love rings. Fun picture.

you got THAT right,Ian!! I have more pictures with my fingers in the way than I ever did with a REAL camera! LOL!

Green nail polish, hmmm I think you had better see an eye specialist.

Tiny camera how do you hold it to take pictures, usually with things that small fingers are all in the wrong palces at the right time?
Guest 16-Apr-2004 01:11
:) nice and imaginative! :)

It wouldn't be as good without the fingers :-)
