So, was it?

Eisboch
Nope. No need to improve on nature.

Sometimes nature screws up. Reflecting on the high school glamour
shot, here's what I really look like now, in my mind's eye.

Do you sound like that, too, in your mind's ear?

Of course. Just ask me. Or Sam. He's the extent of my groupie
following.

Eisboch

You're doing better than I am. When I play the guitar, the cats leave.

Sam has no choice. I chain him to the amp. Tried that with Mrs.E. once,
but she broke free and ran from the room, hands over her ears.

So what about the new guitar? Did I miss it?

Nope. Still working on something. Patience, my man, patience.

You going to get Joe Perry to model it for you?

I've met you.

There is some small resemblance.

I can't believe that, that girl is as cute as a button.

Yeah, right. The only resemblance is that we have the same guitar, 'cept
he's just slightly more advanced in his ability to play it.

Was listening to a Jazz station a couple of days ago and they were doing an
all time great guitar countdown. Carlos Santana was 15th and Eric Clapton
ranked 4th. Who else would be high on the list?

Well, I am not a critic, but I like Jeff Beck, and of course a great
guitarist list would not be complete without Roy Clark..

Al DeMeola, Wes Montgomery, Django Reinhardt - maybe George Benson in
a pinch, Pat Metheny certainly, Eddie Lang certainly, Earl Klugh, Joe
Pass and maybe a couple others, but those are the greats.

Jazz guitarists moron. :)

Come to think of it, Santana and Clapton hardly qualify as "jazz"
guitarists.

Clapton maybe - bluesy kind of thing as "maybe" jazz.

I suppose it is for photographers not interested in life as it is,
or for photographers whose composition and exposure skills are
minimal.
I like life as it is. I like to take photos that look as close to
what I saw as possible.
We recently came across an old, forgotten box of family photos.
One was my high school graduation "glamour" shot ..... you know,
the ones that were airbrushed back at the studio to remove a few
pimples, add a tinge of ruddy red to the cheeks and enhance the
color of the eyes.
In my case, I am kinda glad the photographer didn't simply
reproduce what he saw. It wasn't pretty.
Eisboch
Did you have a flattop?
Here's a photo of someone's 14-year-old granddaughter.
Do you think it has been photoshopped?
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...eous/diana.jpg
Actually it was photoshoped, using CS3. If you look at the exif data
you actually made 25 adjustments in photoshop.
I think she is a beautiful young woman, but the lighting is not
complementary to her or her skin tone. The photo looks flat like you
had the light directly behind you when you took the photo.
How come the picture disappeared?
Because the guy I wanted to see it saw it.
Harry, I noticed you did not disagree with the fact that you
photoshopped the file in CS3.- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -
shhhhh, he's busy deflecting.. The guy is a fraud, every last post..
I had to download the photo to run the EXIF data, so I still have it.

The killer though is the photo would have been a really nice portrait if
he did not have her facing directly into the window.

Would you mind putting it back up?
