I suspect I would love the b&w version (tell Lisa she has lovely legs,
next time you're talking to her), but the first thing I thought of

I must be honest, I find this photo to be grotesque. Sorry.
It's not meant to be a photo of a girl's legs anymore. It's actually meant
to be a weathered statue. If you are thinking of this as a girl's legs,
perhaps that is where you get the sensation of grotesque? Perhaps I should
have named it "A Statue of Lisa - (detail)" or something like that? ;)
Perhaps you will like this variation better?

I did notice that if you display these images with gamma set too dark, that
it doesn't have the proper feel any longer. I increased the gamma of #3, to
see if this helped you any. (Of course, it's also a different texture
variation to begin with.) These were created on a PC, and Mac users might
get a totally different effect, due to gamma issues.
If you still don't like it, that's okay. I'd much rather hear an honest
complaint than false praise. Thanks for looking. ;)
take care,
Glen
