Anybody fancy a hug?
Regardless of whether you do or not, this hug goes out to my anonymous benefactor who, while I slept the sleep of the drunken bum (which is often the case) took it upon themselves to upgrade me to Ace membership overnight. You are a true gentleman/gentlelady. This hug is for you.
I am a confirmed and certifiable nutbar with a penchant for skulls, bones, blood, guts, fire and anything slightly peculiar and mostly bizarre. I also...
@carla42 It's a very special kind of hug...and aren't they just awesome people? @pandorasecho I guess I'll have to start taking it seriously now... @gardencat I might need some time to recover from hugging someone as well... @nadaa Thank you very much :) @janiskay Thanks very much - on both counts @lesip I suppose you want one now? ;) @kwind Thank you kindly :) @deborah63 No pressure then? ;) @northy Or more awesome fails, take you pick...was considering starting an album for "pre-edit" shots but yeah...nah... @bill_fe Thank you and thank you...it was a pleasant surprise to wake up to. Which is something my wife never says ;) @nanderson I know! Someones fairly awesome. @lifepause Woof woof @amandal Its all about how you lean... @sheilaanne I'd have to show you the pre edit image to explain it properly, but the white is provided courtesy of the walls either side of the bathroom door...and Lightroom did the rest
@colleenbrown88 Thanks very much - it's surprisingly easy (unless anyone asks, then it's very, very difficult) @hermann Indeed - It was certainly a surprise @yeshanghai I know - some people are far too generous
Damn! I'm going to miss my regular nag at you to do this for yourself, like you know you should have done, ages ago. I have no idea what kind person has spoilt my fun - I promise you, that it wasn't me.
@annied I like to leave my victims with something to think about @vignouse You'll have to find something else to nag me about now...and you were a prime suspect... @alinz This is indeed my smily happy rainbow face @deliad I wouldn't expect anything less @yaorenliu Thank you very much - a hug is hug, even if it does leave scars. @dibzgreasley Indeed, someone needs thanking and now I feel a pressure to perform @quackyquack I might just smile for Halloween... @motherjane No pressure then... ;)
@graemestevens I guessed that I might be - and I would be lying if I said that it hadn't crossed my mind - but no, someone else is due that hug... lucky them! And, don't worry, I will find something else to have a go at you about ;-))
@jack4john I like the sound of the grope-athon... @nicoleterheide I know, there's some awesome people here - and thank you @mastermek I guess I have to take it seriously now... @quackyquack No one needs that sort of terror in their life @susale Thanks very much :) @vignouse I have no doubt at all that you'll come up with something sooner or later - truth be told, it keeps me on my toes ;)
Fantastic shot, love love love the 3D effect it gives - you're so good at those dramatic contrast images... And ACE!!! I thought for sure Richard might have done it too :) How fun!
@kerosene You say fun, but now I have to take this shit seriously! @golftragic Thank you very much :) @homeschoolmom Thanks very much :) @pistache Thank you kindly :) @mindeater They always do... @joansmor Chicken... @kategoring Thanks very much - can't say I blame you either, my wife says that being hugged by me is like hugging an epileptic octopus @cocobella I'm so spoiled @blueberry1222 Absolutely - just when you think they're all like me someone goes and proves us wrong! @happypat There are some awesome people, and yes, this is my delighted face
I think we all need a group hug!! That was an extremely kind gesture, whether you wanted it or not!! Now, at least you won't have to guess at who has been FAVing your photos! ;-)) Seriously, though, do you stand in front of a black backdrop on a white wall, or is this post processing?!
@photographycrazy For some reason no one wants to get too close... @panthora There are some truly wonderful people here. In this case the white is the walls on either side of the bathroom door and the black is a backdrop that I put in the door frame...then lean forward and look menacing ...
@graemestevens Thanks for that explanation!! That's kind of what I figured, but you never know! Much better to create these kind of shots in place than having to mess with PS!!
For a minute there I thought you had overcome your Scottish heritage and forked out for it. It's obviously a testament to your great work that it has been provided to you. Well bravo I say. I'm looking forward to a little more insanity in my day :)
@888rachel Thanks very much and yes, some generous soul decided that I should be taking this lark a bit more seriously...generously awesome @karlow75 You can never have to much insanity in your day...the last two days have been chaos though so you may have to wait...
