Hi Steve ... One big problem with displaying photos on the web is that you never see them as intended. When the photo is seen at its full size of about 24-inches across, it takes on an entirely different feel, at least for me. I wish there were a way it could be seen as it was intended to be viewed ... large, on a wall, printed on a specific paper. There are three "final" versions for different lighting situations and venues ... plus I can provide a sofa-sized version on black velvet with your choice of three tasteful, decorative Elvis motifs as a border <LOL>
I'm not at all suggesting that you'd no longer be uncomfortable with it, but you might feel differently as some of what you see in the small version is more muted and subtle, masked somewhat by the grain, the printing technique, and the paper choice. shel Steve Desjardins wrote: > > I find it fascinating and slightly disturbing, probably because my own > cultural upbringing does not associate good things with foot-kissing. > The odd "texture" of the tones also gives it a "something is wrong" > feeling. > > This is a good example of a powerful photo whose primary effect (for > me) is discomfort. > > Steven Desjardins > Department of Chemistry > Washington and Lee University > Lexington, VA 24450 > (540) 458-8873 > FAX: (540) 458-8878 > [EMAIL PROTECTED]
