Are You Man Enough?

Uploaded: November 24, 2007

Description

This is my submission for the Nov. Silly Saturated Shootout entitled "The Difference Between Men and Women". I knew I was going to use the photo of the "mannequin bride" I had. It was only while playing in Photo Elements did this kind of "alien bride" emerge....

Exif: Exposure Time: 1/200, Flash: 16, ISO: 400, Camera Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi

Way to go Ellen, COOL image, excellent work!!!!! #794261

Ellen Powell November 24, 2007

Thanks SO much, Cassie!! It was FUN!! I'm going to look and see if you've decided to upload your entry tonight. :)

I almost made the dress purple just for you, Steve, but how could I turn a white wedding dress purple? Just couldn't do it, even though I know how much you LOVE purple.... Please forgive me. #5119343

Yikes! Beam me up, Scotty!
A lovely alien image, Ellen. Thank you for sparing the purple. :)

Ellen, CMU.... Great concept. Do wish you had added at least a hint of purple for Steve. Wow you guys must be up late. #5120280

Thanks so much, Pat and David! I was up too late. I didn't start until last evening, but I wasn't going to redst untill I had something good.

Please stay tuned. There may time this morning to see if I can put something in there purple for Steve. Not making any promises... #5120487

Thanks so much, Diana. And before Steve mentions it, I notice a typo on my last text submission here. #5120592

LOL! This is great Ellen! Wonderful concept, very creative ... she's a little on the intimidating side :) lol Great use of combining effects. Did you "take" this just for the club, or was this lovely bride hidden in your stockpile? #5121030

Mitch Spence level-classic November 25, 2007

What fun, Ellen. Does she have great big teeth in there--the better to bite them with? #5121062

Ellen Powell November 25, 2007

Thanks, Mitch. She's got something in there...

For Steve (and I hope the upload works here) a bit of purple. #5121620

Ellen Powell November 25, 2007

Thanks, Mitch. She's got something in there...

For Steve (and I hope the upload works here) a bit of purple. I also put it on the club page, but Steve, I didn't want you to miss this. I'm born to please men. Not. :) #5121629

Is a very original composition with lovely colors on it, like the idea very much! :) #5142756

Ellen Powell November 28, 2007

Thank you so much for your compliment, Daniella!! I really appreciate the Silly Saturation Shootout club for monthly inspiration to try to "go where no man has gone before"!!! LOL :) #5142973

Ellen, congrats on the EP. I still the groom put that twinkle in her eye! Have a great night. #5165220

Ellen Powell December 03, 2007

Aw, Dave, I think you're right. (Of course I'll deny I said that in public, though. ;) #5165337
