Ever feel guilty..
About a shot you are about to post that you know is cliche and overdone? I am torn about whether or not to selectively color a new image. I have edited it to a full color image and I have a selective color copy. I like the desaturated one better. But I know there will be a backlash if I post it. hmmm... Frankly, if done well and with purpose I enjoy selective color photos. Maybe I just shouldn't give a rats ass what others think. Anyone else?

Then again I've always been a bit of a non-conformist so I don't generally let what other people say or think dictate my actions :p Besides, the truth is almost everything has been done before.

May 24 06 11:49 am Link Post them both here first, we can be your test audience. May 24 06 11:51 am Link Jeb, you turn models into hotwings and post self portraits of yourself with a chubby..?! You are a man who should not be concerned with cliche.. Go with it.. Don't worry.. We'll cover Brian's eyes.. May 24 06 11:55 am Link WG Rowland wrote: Oh brother. I didn't have a chubby. I'm bigger than that little knob you folks pointed out. May 24 06 12:09 pm Link John Jebbia wrote: I would have had a chubby.. On the other hand, I'm not a gifted man.. So, probably, no one would have noticed.. May 24 06 12:13 pm Link WG Rowland wrote: Oops. I guess I edited my post too late. May 24 06 12:14 pm Link Heh.. Oh, and thread hopping cuz I'm lazy.. But sorry about the compact flash.. That DEEPLY sucks.. May 24 06 12:15 pm Link WG Rowland wrote: Yeah. I'm bummed out.. I had the rushing water blurred perfectly to a milky white. She held perfectly still so as not to blur her... And my vantage point was perfect for perspective and framing. On the bright side, I have 400+ studio images of her that are safe and sound.
