Hi all,
Many thanks to this weeks reviewers.. It's so nice to get feedbacks on our
pictures ..
Here are some answers concerning your comments..
To Gregory..
My picture was already sent the week before, but didn't make it to the
gallery .. Or you'd have got to see the two giant faces together. I know
mine was sent only during Thursday/Friday night, but my picture was the 13th
and the Gallery staff girls didn't take the similarities in account.
To Gregory and Andy ..
The flatness may be due to the fact that the verticals were corrected in
Photoshop, while the horizontals weren't ? To my eyes, the black face seems
to protrude.. But well my eyes are such that when looking at 3d pictures I
see holes where the others see bumps ;-)
To Marilyn..
It's interesting to compare how you feel about that face.. Knowing that the
building in the background is a theater, I wonder rather what the face is
hiding behind this mask.. What is the real self behind the staged one ;-)
Thanks to all for your comments..
