Remember this shot of becky_spence?

Seems someone else had a very similar idea. His execution is a lot better, too. *grump*

Yeah, but he probably has lots more expensive equipment.

AND his looks heavily photoshopped.

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Most likely true on the equipment (his camera alone is about four times as expensive) but mine is photoshopped, too (brightness/contrast/exposure)

[razornet.livejournal.com]

Also I like yours better. They might have a solid silhouette but yours fits the idea better. Thiers looks a bit... flat.

Thanks!
It depends on the intention, though. Mine had been to create a perfect silhouette in which I failed but he succeeded.

[chrisvenus]

Well, you may have failed in your intention but as others says yours looks better. I like the fact you don't have a perfect silhouette but get the colour bleeding in slightly at the edges and catchign the gun. I'm sure you could have just blacked out the beautiful model if you'd wanted in photoshop if you'd wanted that effect but this does look very cool.

[flamma-lupus.livejournal.com]

yours has a cuter model!

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

I can't argue with that. ;o)

[melacynthe.livejournal.com]

Actually, I like this one better.

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :o)

[raggedyman.livejournal.com]

yeah, but theirs is a very blatent 007 rip off from the opening credits whilst this one is more of a 'non-specific sci-fi' thing. yours also looks more 3D, which I think adds to it

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

I give up... ;o)

[raggedyman.livejournal.com]

accept the fact that your one is more individual, whilst their is 'technically' better blahblahwhogivesadamnabouttechnicalnotmeblah. Your pic rocks, you have a good eye and thats that.

[compilerbitch.livejournal.com]

I like yours better too. The other one was so Bond credits derivative it hurts. I liked your not-quite obvious green background and the not-quite silhouette also really works. Nice prop -- what is it?

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Thank you!
*grins* It's a toy bubble gun. The theme was "PVC Babes from Outer Space" and starts here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/karohemd/146078052/in/set-72057594133756681/).

Between te two, prefer yours. If there were a bit more of her torso that wouls be nice, but being able to see that tiny wicked gleam in her eye is wonderful, it also MAKES you look harder as you feel she is looking at you.

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Thank you!
That is a scary icon. ;o)

[dreamsewing.livejournal.com]

Scary? Wha... I never told you I was the love child of Animal and Slash from G'n'R before?

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Hehehe

[pmoodie.livejournal.com]

Oh I dunno. I prefer yours. The pose in the other one is a bit naff and Tomb Raider-ish. Yours is much more classy and iconic.

I also like the slight bit of light bleeding into the silhouete in yours, whether you meant it or not! It adds mystery!

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot! :o)

[martinhesselius.livejournal.com]

Like many, I waaaay prefer yours.
And not because I know the photographer, either -
I like your look, feel, luminance.

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Glas! Gives me confidence.
