Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master.

Tim, I love the title and the concept, but somthing IMHO something is missing. Not sure if it is the eyeline, it is more like your Dad is about to turn around and pounce on you! Or maybe it is because his eyeline leads to a dark area in the picture.

I've got a camera, it's black. I've got some lens, they are black as well.

Not bad for a fella of 69yrs young... keeps the kid population in the street quiet too... youd have to be brave to put up with ^^^ that yelling at you

In that first image, is it me or is there some form of hue shift type effect where the sky enters the blown-out area :? Looks like a couple of slight bunnies too :wink:

Like the composition of the image as a candid homely image, although the second one scared me! :lol:
