Talking to myself by judithg

Talking to myself

I quite often look around half way through a conversation to find that everybody has headphones on. And to be honest when I'm concentrating on the computer I'm not listening either. I tend to always have the radio on in the background. We detect a lot of sound but I don't know how often we listen. I've enjoyed myself enormously with airbrush and wrinkle remover this morning - if only it were so easy in real life! Mind you - there's no character left ;0)

Such a fabulous image and perfect (in my opinion) entry into the theme this week.

Definitely laughed out loud about the wrinkle remover & you're right - no character left. lol

Great photo. Is it Q & A?
January 25th, 2012  
Well, this is a step out of the box for you!! How fun - playtime!
January 25th, 2012  
haha this is fab. New profile pic perhaps?
January 25th, 2012  
What a fabulous portrayal of sound and the overpowering influence of it in our modern times ;). Love your green hair ;)).

This is great fun Judith & doesn't look like you at all !!! I might have a go myself for fun while we can use Picnic extras free !! Super theme photo too.. very inventive & clever idea !! You look about 20 years old !!!
January 25th, 2012  
I love this! Very different for you!
January 25th, 2012  
Wow wasn't expecting a shot like this from you! Marvelous!!! Looks like you've had a lot of fun creating it :)
January 25th, 2012  
Cool! Fabulously inventive!
January 25th, 2012  
Very creative shot - fun editing.
January 25th, 2012  
@happypat The camera never lies Pat!!
January 25th, 2012  
This is so cool!! wonderful.
January 25th, 2012  
What is happening to the art of conversation - your expression says it all! Great job!
January 25th, 2012  
You and red lipstick, just doesn't go Judith!!!! Mmmm you look younger than Rachel here! like you say the camera 'almost' never lies. Great fun theme shot.
January 25th, 2012  
What a statement! Maybe you need a vacation by yourself? I adore the way you processed this picture. and the plug in that looks almost like a pencil in your mouth. a great way for me to wake up before I dare the flooded and possibly landslided roads. How did you do the double arms?
January 25th, 2012  
@jgpittenger That's just the bevelling at the edge of the mirror!! This was the first shot I tried - I corrected the double hands and the odd gaze but in the end I went back and chose it. Some of the rest may be processed however!!!
January 25th, 2012  
@samdan Oooh - I'd better not tell her that!
January 25th, 2012  
Well you had me wondering if it was you or your daughter,.. It's true though init :-) Could post a similar one of me at the front of the lecture theatre. Except I didn't think of it! Nice one.
January 25th, 2012  
@fueast My daughter will be most unimpressed by this thread ! TBH I looked pretty grim without the smoothing! I'm sure your students hang on your every word ....
January 25th, 2012  
@peterdegraaff After a few drinks!!
January 25th, 2012  
@judithg I love being able to ask how people do things in their photos. What a gift this 365 is and all the generous people
January 25th, 2012  
Ha ha love it, change your profile pic to this, I too thought it was your daughter :D
Love the green hair and vacant expression that teenagers do so well. :D
January 25th, 2012  
@judithg I've been having a go today with the wrinkle remover & it's fantastic !!
January 25th, 2012  
Ah, you look mahvelous! What a fun and creative theme shot. You must have ordered some of that special face cream that Pat Knowles received in the mail a couple weeks ago! Oh if we could only apply computer processing to the real self.
January 25th, 2012  
@barbsmith By golly Barb I wish it was that good !!! I have been using the wrinkle remover today & I must say I do look about 30 years younger !!! Might put one up tomorrow !!!
January 25th, 2012  
@barbsmith On Picnic I hasten to add !
January 25th, 2012  
very creative theme shot - works really well (I recommend the oilify feature on GIMP as a way of softening out blemishes too)
January 25th, 2012  
Very creative shot ,super for the theme. It 's great fun experimenting on picnic.
January 25th, 2012  
Great work Judith, your headphone wire into your mouth looks like you are drinking some awful alco-pop cocktail..."cheeky vimto" perhaps

What do your children think of Mum looking all cool and groovy like this ? Or perhaps they don't think it's cool and groovy !!
January 25th, 2012  
Quite surreal looking! Well done, very original selfie.
January 25th, 2012  
Oooh...no Monty, no bike, no college, no gorgeous scenery, reflections or light?! Brilliant shot though! And a fabulous statement!
January 25th, 2012  
So now you know what you look like with green hair, have you decided to dash off to the hairdresser's and have it done? Interesting shot!
January 25th, 2012  
@happypat @lluniau @phil_howcroft @barbsmith The sad thing is that both husband and son asked me who it is - I didn't realised I look so rough that they can't recognise me with a bit of smoothing!
January 25th, 2012  
@judithg LOL !!
January 26th, 2012  
omg lol yeah think the character is much better :)
January 26th, 2012  
Kind of weird. You look about 13! I prefer you with your character in your face.
January 26th, 2012  
Very cool theme shot.
January 26th, 2012  
Very funky sound shot!
January 27th, 2012  
very cool selfie - I though it was a pic of a china doll on the thumbnail!! love the edit and a great concept
January 27th, 2012  
Incredibly scary in a good way!
January 27th, 2012  
Love this shot, Judith - so different from your usual style. You're right about the wrinkle remover! I wish we could "Picnik" our faces every morning!
January 27th, 2012  
Fun fun fun.
January 28th, 2012  
LOVE this!!! This is just wonderful, cute, and fun! I wish I had a jar of "airbrush" on my bathroom counter. :)
January 28th, 2012  
Clever idea and great processing. Yes jar of airbrush would be good.
January 28th, 2012  
Love this! such a cool concept and brilliant shot :-) made me smile a lot, but then I remembered that would give me wrinkles, so had to stop smiling ;-)
January 29th, 2012  
Ooh, very cool - but a bit spooky too - yes, I could do with some of your patented wrinkle-remover too!
Yes, a walk next week would be good.... what about Tuesday or Thursday?
January 29th, 2012  
Haha ... LOVE this Judith! Clever idea and processing! So different from your previous profile pic :)
January 30th, 2012  
Too funny.... You crack me up!!!! I'm thinking the character lines are working better!!!!
