Very nice composition, and the BW grained effect works quite well here. Great portfolio.

Arwa, It's www.dpchallenge.com but I just got upset over one of their rulings on a photo I had in a contest and asked them to cancel my membership since they can't even agree on how to follow their own rules. :) They DQ'd me on using a blur but allow blur in all sorts of photos so I told them I quit so I won't be doing the sand one. BUT feel free to do them - just make sure you read the rules really closely and know that "advanced editing" really isn't "advanced". Hee hee.

I love this shot - these sun glasses are the BOMB on you. You have a great face for them to sit on (and not everyone can carry these off). I love that I can see your arms in the shot - holding the camera and the room...yes the room I always had (not so much when you have kids and you have to yell at them to "go clean their room). I think artistic people are cluttered by nature - as long as you know where it is, that's really all that matters. :) LOVE this... As for the apple project - it was deadlined yesterday (I found out today) so I have my lame photo in there! :( Oh well, it will teach me. The next one is the "sand" challenge... got any thoughts? I have a beach. :) Maybe my challenges will inspire you? Hee Hee Hee.

Now if you are going to wear aviator sunglasses then you will have to come and sit on the planes undercarriage like me lol
Seriously though, a lovely photograph and a novel idea focussing through the photograph and on to the reflection instead.
Best wishes, Steve

hi arwa,
don't call me obsessed, but I think the collage idea is so cool...
= Fragments of Arwa =
Subject background: Arwa, one of the nicest person in Usefilm, shown as a strong woman with great facets and versatility. A great photographer, a great friend.
PS concept: just brought the image together as a collage ;-)
Honest feedback highly appreciated
This image is dedicated to.... ARWA (okay, no surprise) =)

hi arwa,
welcome Mrs. Woman in black. you're definitely smarter than tommy lee or will =)
yes, I would vote for "Pictures of our members". I mean, this is an alternate view. but it's more a cool self portrait =)
so some time in the future, I can puzzle myself a portrait of you with the fragments you upload ;-)
best wishes coolio,

Dear Arwa, Very interesting concept - I like the idea. I like what Deb said about Art bringing an order to chaos. Your place is messy and my place / organization is messy but we should look at it as an "Art Opportunity". Nice shot, All the best, Mark

Thank you so much steve! I wanted to clone the hand out too! The problem is im having problems with my PS and im using now photoshop CS middle east and I couldn?t find the clone tool!!!! Should it be under the ?pictures of our members? instead? I just wanted to use the reflection of the messy room + the terrified eye :P

Hi Arwa...
i stated off lookijg ofr the photographer in the reflection .. and then realised it was you :)
Quite a clever imagem nicely unsharp on the face with the reflections of the room in sharp focus.
I would be tempted to try and 'clone out' your arm for a cleaner composition though.
Regardless of that - very interesting style - well done
Steve
