The Eyes Have It

WARNING!

I am suffering from absolute lack of thought or brain mush.  My darling son has decided to extend his musical prowess to cover the drums.  Now, don't think for one minute that I even remotely entertained the idea of getting drums at our house.  No.  And since I am the meanest mom in the world, he has decided to torture me by using all the tupperware, pot lids, etc, in the house to create rhythm.  Therefore, there is constant noise emanating from him and I cannot form a complete, coherent thought and I apologize for whatever comes next.

I have always been intrigued by some of the fancy photoshop editing that I see around, especially when it comes to the eyes.  Though, as a disclaimer, I don't really believe in this much editing as a general rule....I prefer much more natural photos.  Well, I have been working on my editing education and finally learned some of the eye tricks out there and gave it a try.  Here's my most recent subject...and no, she wasn't particularly willing, but completely bribable.  I told her if she wore this hand-me-down-coat-with-the-furry-hood-that-is-way-to-big-for-her in a photo, I would let her wear it to school....I love free bribery.

(Also mastered a new watermarking program....love it!)

Just a little different version.

Anyway, there's my attempt at "fancy eyes"...now I'm going to find either ear plugs or a drink as I'm not sure how much more noise I can take before I loose my mind!

Don't forget to read the post below and VOTE...happy Monday and Martin Luther King Jr day!

I almost didn't recognize her with those brown eyes. Amazing what photoshopping can do.

After I go to the gym a lot more, when you take my book photo, I want you to jazz up my eyes like this. it's awesome!! (and i might just wear a furry hoodie - that's very cool)

Wow!! She looks like she belongs on some chic magazine. The picture says, "Don't even think about trying to look at cute as me, Darling. You won't even get close."
