 Hey kids, nothing says Joy like a mammogram. Whoo hoo! Just had my first one ever today and that is the hospital behind me.

I used Topaz Simplify to cartoonize me and the world around me. My fingers aren't really that dirty and I have to say that my cartoon self looks way better than I do lol.

***********
Art - you always make me laugh!

I also love all the different ways you guys are describing a mammogram. It's all been pretty much true so far lol.

Very cute photo - love that look. I tried downloading Topaz - ran into problems and got bored. Now I'll have to revisit.

Meanwhile - you look not-too-traumatized, which is good.

My "first" is a couple of years away, and I'm already dreading it. . .


Ouch! No JOY in that.

Your mammogram results are in and they revealed what we suspected all along: that your fingernails are all different lengths. You will need a double-fingernailectomy. I am sorry. :P

Congratulations on getting the important stuff taken care of!

I laughed about the dirty finger comment. I figured they weren't, but that's one thing that sometimes stinks about processing. I really liked everything about it except that. Oh well! I like how you composed the shot.

Love the composition and processing, and what a wonderful expression on your face, very mischievous!

From this picture you'd never guess where you just came from. I find it a bit challenging, due to the cartoonish effect, the hood with your slight smile, the joy, and the twinkles. Great job.

The processing helps this a lot. It certainly makes your hand look the way mine look without any processing LOL. Joy to you too : ) I like the mysterious look of the hood, and what's all that white stuff in the BG. We never have that here.

Interesting editing on this one......I think you do need to clean your fingers though. Dodge that down a bit its distracting, and then I really like it.
