Very imaginative and well executed. I like it. Fits Halloween
perfectly.


Thanks. Thought you might like it.

As I've said before, what matters is if you like it. If you have a
vision, and execute it to your satisfaction, that's what it is all about.

I get that, but in a way it feels a bit too self centered.

When I mixed live sound I always did it to enhance the
audience experience. At the end of the night I had the
satisfaction that I had served well. Audience response
allowed me to evaluate my tweaks.

When on stage acting it was never about me, but
about connecting.
~~
That said, my neighbor sent me an odd shot of my cat taken
with her phone. I gave it a rather extreme artistic work-over.

I'm not sure if I'm seeking an audience or adapting to the
one at hand. Anyway, I'll throw it out for an audience response:

I hope the Duck is sitting down. The way I look at it, a
glow-electrification treatment should somehow blend and enhance the
image. I just don't see that in your image.

Here is an example of what I mean:
Most of my nurse friends love it. The nursing administrators, without a
sense of humor, don't.

As we all know, other than the occasional (usually accidental) goof, that
sort of stuff is not for me. Sometimes I will use other effects, but not many
which would fit your particular vision. ;-)

OK, no question the Duck is not a fan of that kind of treatment.
I did a bunch of variations and like this one as an abstraction.
The original photo was from my neighbor's phone. The quality
was too low to pull out a good realistic photo.

Um, are you really surprised that the nursing administrators
wouldn't respond well to that jab? ;-)

Thank you. That image was intended as a fun poke at head nurses. It was
not intended to be taken seriously. I have too much respect for most
members of the nursing profession.

I'm glad you did not take my comment as a personal insult. It was not
intended as anything but my opinion of one particular image. That you
