Challenge: Secret Self Portrait (Basic Editing)
Collection: Family and Friends
Date: Oct 18, 2012
Date Uploaded: Oct 18, 2012

 We are remodeling our house right now so I found the container holding my wedding dress and veil. So I took a pic with the veil on. I'm pretty sure that's the only thing that still fits since I got married :D

I wanted to do an artsy fartsy shot because a picture of just plain old me is pretty boring - even with a disguise.

This is gorgeous. The spaces roll into each other; the white light, the black light, the soft edge mixed with electricity.
Enough to keep you on our toes and still enough to have you come back for more.

Very cool. It reminds me of a painting my dad used to have up in his house, though the resemblance may be completely in my own head. :)

easily in the top ten for me... i love the highlights in MB - their sharp details really contrast with the rest of the image to make it seem like a birthday cake. if that makes sense. right. excellent work.

beautiful, mysterious, tantalizing, really like the use of space on this and the balance between light and dark areas, just enough form to the face to keep it interesting.
