Without shadow there is no sun... and vice versa.

Just one of those days... the strange mix of darkness and brightness waging war in ones mind.

To explain the extremely "honest" processing here, I used a so called draganizing technique that brings out every wrinkle and pore... it can be seen all too well in the original size ;o) Hmmm... maybe it is some form of self accepting therapy :D

Pixiepro replies:
Thank you so much Bärbel... actually there was a whole lot of sun and it shone straight into my eyes, and that's why I have this "angry" expression ;o)

Trés bonne définition...mais les yeux verts....???? as-tu mis des lentilles....:))))
Posted 9 months ago. ( permalink / translate )
Pixiepro replies:
No, no lenses... and this colour is more blue than green I think. This is what the processing called "draganizing" does to them ;o) Thank you so much Nadine :o)

AbsoluteShower says:
Well you've done it again with another amazing self!!! Excellent effect! That draganizing is as you used before, but I prefer this one - it is so stylish!!

I'm sorry to read you might be "down in the dumps" as we might say (and mean depressed) I guess we all have such moments of anxiety and stress about one thing or another. Self acceptance should be a no-brainer for you my friend!! We all think you're great!! :-)))

So to cheer you up I have to crack a joke: "Typical - women-drivers!!!!" :-D
Posted 9 months ago. ( permalink )
Pixiepro replies:
Wow, thanks Nigel! ... and you've also done it again... you've put a big smile on my face! :D I'm really glad for my Iper friends :o)

Hmmm... now where have I heard that "women drivers" joke before... LOL

Wiki Tangopro says:
I think the shot and the processing is exceptional,
there's no need for any therapy, you are accepted =)
and I can hardly find any wrinkles...

Berny27pro says:
fantastic green eyes!
Posted 9 months ago. ( permalink / translate )
Pixiepro replies:
Thanks Berny! ... but do they look green? Maybe it's the processing... but they are bluegrey with yellow circle and streaks... and I think the colour combo differs a bit depending on my mood ;o)
Posted 9 months ago. ( permalink )
Berny27pro replies:
green, green-blue, bluegrey......beautiful anyway, like the sea, which has also different colors depending on its mood ;-))

Bogaugon says:
Wonderful treatment. But, you know, I understand sometimes one need to reflect moods in the photos, but I rather see you smiling (therefore having good reasons to do so). I wish you a thousand reasons to smile about!! And like someone else wrote your eyes are stunning!
Posted 9 months ago. ( permalink )
Pixiepro replies:
Thank you so much Gustavo... so true, sometimes one has the need to express oneself through photos :o) ... and often they become more dramatic than intended ;o) Thank you so much for your wishes and your compliments! They certainly made me smile... in a big way! :D
