:))) Ani... Why does this remind me of the older film version of *Little Women*...
~~GRIN~~ I think I know... It's the feel, the etchiness, the hat, the light & tones and the angle, they do make the eyes see the face... Like a still from the film...:)))
Love when you *art* Dear Ani...:)))
I am slowly catching up on everyones work...:)))
Onie...

Aniko -- Stop in whenever you can; better to hear from you a little than none at all. I love this one which has such a delicate and classic feel to it; the point of view and the slight texture really make it a stand out. Wonderful and elegant!
--Best to you, Jan

Thank you Dear Shirley.
Yes that is my wish also... and to visit my friends here whenever I wish! I can't keep up with everyone and their wonderful works!!! :(
As you know,the "making of the art" is time consuming. Even photographing "straight" in camera and waiting for films to be developed and printed is tricky. The films I like to use are disappearing off the shelves at the camera houses! :(
It is nearly impossible to buy batteries for my ancient cameras, though I don't really need them, provided I can find a good reliable hand held light meter. My cameras only need a battery for light metering... lol...
So another project... To purchase a good second hand light meter. I wish!(A lot of wishes going on here...)
Sometimes Colin allows me to use one of his digital cameras as you know, but it isn't the same! I can't get "into" digital and also I am really a horror and stubborn and would prefer to use my own camera/s, (digital or otherwise) as I have an affinity with that which "lives with me"... I guess I could use the old Mavica! ROFLOL!
OK... I have vented.
I am needed at work (the 2 sites I co-manage are short of managers at the moment, owing to one manager moving half way across the country and so forth... so I am on call a lot!)
And there is the non cyber life... wow... Life is BUSY!!!
Loving Hugs and thank you for letting me ramble on...
Aniko :)

Hi Gary!
LOL! PS is meant to be "too obvious" in this one, as is the case in many of my PS works... :)
Some like the "too obvious" effects and others don't. Art is subjective.
I have 2 Haunting_Images websites that I don't want and can't delete! Ughh! Want to start a new one with a better host/server...whatever...
I will take a look at your work after I have slept. It is 6:40am and I have been up all night. Almost ready to drop.
Thanks for your comments and I'll catch up with you soon.
Aniko :)

Wonderful portrait with great expression. I like the serenity in this view a lot. Your choice of colors and toning fit very well and contribute to make it a nice harmonic portrait with a great atmosphere. Well done, my friend.
