...My entry into the "Framing" contest...

...The images in the foreground and the background are from the same snap of my sister standing in the back of my first Ranger pickup...on one of my trips to see the family in Brooklyn, sometime in late '93 (I used to drive from Chitown Metro to NYC and back again in those times)...Since the original photo had seen better days when I scanned it, I simply cut out the image of Marge, gave her some color F/X, and "crosshatched" the remaining background...That done, I put in the framing, lighting, shadow...and "rockskin" layers, and another crazy concoction is history...

Good contest entry Yogi. You must like Dodger blue too if you are from Brooklyn. Maybe they were not forgiven for moving. The Boys of Summer and all that. Good creation.

Wheeeeeeeee!! I love this creative side of you! Of course some of the love I have for this might be the colour. Ya think?!! I love that funky design that sorta looks like hipboots! You are really the art-man now! I too love the crosshatching. This is a really fun posting Ron. Bigtime hugs go yur way. Verena

Super job on the F/X, and contest entry, Ron! I especially like the cross-hatching and the "rockskin" on her pants! Best of luck!
