A little bit of me... Really best viewed large, if you have the time. by marlboromaam

A little bit of me... Really best viewed large, if you have the time.

Continuing with my series of light, shadow, shade and a mirror... It's been very cloudy all day. The sun only pops out for a few seconds at a time. So the shadows are much more subtle than I'd like. Had to snap this in a hurry before the clouds blocked out the sun again. The little light flares are real - no editing of those! This mirror sure gets dusty and dirty pretty quick outside. Sorry about that! Also got a little bit of me caught in there, but it was purely unintentional... which reminds of this! LOL! Enjoy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sz-2jckjeHo
great idea for a photo:D
And this serie of light,shade and mirrors photos are great

Cool. Do you use a filter on your lens? Thanks for being such a fantastic teacher.
May 4th, 2012  
Lovely, not enough of you, though! :)

LOL! Fabulous capture. Great selfie (albeit of a minute kind). Love the colours and reflections. Well impressed.

I like how the frame blends into the background. Great sun flares. Our weather here is also funky - pleasant when the sun is behind the clouds and not so when it comes out and the air gets muggy. Have a feeling summer will be bad. Last night I got my first mosquito bite while getting the mail. Too early methinks. Bad sign.

I really like this idea, nice to see peeking in at the bottom :-)
May 4th, 2012  
Great lens flare! And LUV that little bit of me. You are quite clever with connecting a song with your shots. :D
May 4th, 2012  
It's like looking into another world. Love it.
May 4th, 2012  
It really looks like a window into your beautiful world!
May 4th, 2012  
I love the light flares! And love the backdrop that reminds me of an old wallpaper that has started to grow :) I love how it gets my imagination going!
May 4th, 2012

@michellina Thank you very much, Michaela! Appreciate your kind comments!

@kerristephens Thank you, Kerri!

@yonnie I had all kinds of filters for my film camera, Yvonne. But, sadly NONE for my ol' cheap digital Kodak. Appreciate your kind comments and visit. I can't imagine what I taught you, unless it was what NOT to do. LOL!

@rockinrobyn Oh, that's plenty of me, Robyn! LOL! Thank you for your kind comments!

@meisen325 Oh, I know! I was only outside about an hour and my hair was totally wet with sweat and not a dry stitch on me! Muggy is the word. Nothing like walking into a wall of warm water when you walk out into the heat. Ugh! Thank you for your lovely comments, Monica! Always appreciate you and your visit!

@hagscat LOL! Appreciate your kind comments, Carin! Thank you!

@rmkk If I had been a DJ, instead of a graphic designer, I would still probably have been laid off. LOL! Thank you, Marlene! Really appreciate your comments and visit!

May 4th, 2012  
@phil_howcroft LOL! Thank you, Phil! I would've had a huge crush of Davy but, he was so short and I like my men long and tall and lean. I did, however, appreciate all four of them and each of their talents. Michael was the only true musician among them.

@lizzy_lu123 Aww! Thank you, Lisa! Appreciate that very much!
