 Jonesing for the update button!

Just took a few shots with the P&S. Not really expecting much, because I didn't have much time. This doll creeps me out, but I am weird and have accepted that fact. :) I am sure others will think she is adorable and cuddly. Hehe!

Cropped, played with color then, chose to convert to B&W. Ran NN, Sharpened. Hate the face shine. Oh well.

This is frightening. Reminds me of Bette Davis a bit too.

Those eyes follow you everywhere. Quite remarkable, and unforgettable.

my first reaction to this was "big brother is watching you" (something about the eyes) *l* :-) or the angle I suppose... its interesting how you made the face almost look like its floating in stars; a rather nice effect the dark spots on the face are a bit distracting... i'm not sure if this was dodged/burned (I don't think the rules allowed for it) or if it is dirt? but they're a bit blotchy and keep pulling my eyes into the unusual shapes... --otherwise I like the image overall :-) and gave it a high score

I did not care for the dark background and "sparke" effect.
I am wishing it had been in color instead.

I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep at all now. :P

All those little sparkly bits almost look like stars at night, which fits nicely with the bedtime title. Very good.

Sleep tight? Not with this creepy thing looking at me! Nice choice of lighting to enhance the evilness of this doll.
