I guess when there is not any caring woman around at 'your' home, that kind of 'time travel process' take place.

nice creative one!

Hey - I can read, argue about politics, watch TV, or just stare off into space. It's the life of Riley.... LOL...

"The Time Traveller's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger. It's a 'gotta read' if you're into complexities of time travel...

I love what you've achieved here. A great experiment, perfectly executed. Well done to all the yous :)

Cheers
Rina.

How about delivering "P E A C E" to your fellow neighbors!

Wonderful image and brilliant idea to do it Jon. The complexity of the book summed up in this image is marvellous.

We loved TTTW... very well handled. We recently saw "The Lake House" which has a somewhat similar theme and was surprisingly entertaining, given that it starred Keanu "I Cannot Act Yet I am an Actor" Reeves in it.

Thank you, Mary. It was fun,too. :-] But can you imagine how annoying it would be to be at such a party? You'd be constantly finishing each other's sentences, re-telling the same old stories, arguing about when things happened... hey - that sounds like a lot of the parties I go to now.

Ha ha ha ha, great idea. Makes me think of the many faces of personality. There is the introverted bookworm, a little bored by the others. There is the conciliatory extrovert on the left, and the masculine wine sipper trying to have a serious conversation. Oh yeah, the guy flipping for the hockey game in the foreground. Not sure what to make of the half person at right.

I like how you put the left two in conversation. You must have done some kind of photoshop trick to avoid ghosting of bodies here.

Yeah, I had some time to kill one night so I threw a party :-]. Someone on UF taught me this trick - take a series of shots with the camera on a tripod, using the same lighting, then drop them one at a time on to each other as "layers", then use the erase tool to remove the part of each upper layer that covers the human image below. It works better when none of the figures overlap, so a bit of planning is necessary.

Cheers,

Jon
