Description Why, oh why
Gave you several years of my life
And it just ain't right
What's your perception of love
Now, how many times did we say it was over
And how many times did we not leave
There's no sense in this love hangover
Please come back to me

Cuz I can't forget your ways
I still remember our first kiss
I'm nervous and tremblin'
Wondering where you been
I can't cope with this
Your the one to help me quit
Smoking cigarettes at night
In the midnight hour
Late midnight hour

No it ain't healthy
Smokin'
Gotta quit
Your the only one

I must be the slowest person in the world...or just someone that never reads manuals...because I just figured out the Nikon D80 has a multiple exposure function .
2 shots. First one taken with the self timer. Me after a shower behind a glass shower door. Cigs got wet, clothe got wet, camera got slightly wet.
Second shot taken with the technique detailed in: [link]
Slow shutter speed, so my hand ended up blurry grr. A lot of tone editing in post editing to brighten the photo. Color balancing, noise reduction, sharpen.

I DO NOT SMOKE. Cigarettes were a gag gift from my friend Kim; so I kinda named the deviation after her
Been meaning to experiment with water and windows/glass for awhile Full View

Beautiful photo. You're so good with photoshop! Do you use the kit lens off from your D80 or do you use a specific lens?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

JeanFan In reply to autumnmeetswinter [2008-07-24 22:49:37 +0000 UTC]

Actually this was multi-exposure; not photoshop I did post editing with PhotoImpact5 for color adjustments, etc. For this photo I used the 18-55mm F3.5 lens with a CPL filter to minimize reflections of the glass. I don't know what you mean by "specific lens" and "kit lens" Most of the information regarding the specs behind this photo is in the Artist's Comments.

Melancholic, wistful, sad... I love the mood here. The pic is such a great illustration of the lyrics! You look lost in memories and reveries, surrounded by thoughts of love and tears. I envy you for your creative mind and your mad skill with colors!

PS: Do you know of the Spring Stole My Heart contest? Sounds like a contest made for you, since you're exploring a heart theme at the moment :]

Omg how were those hearts achieved? They look awesome!
And I think you look great with a cig... I mean... it makes such a difference in your photography... you seem so grown here...
And I love the wetness lol.

JeanFan In reply to Adimo-Rosa [2008-02-24 13:52:40 +0000 UTC]

The technique is better explained in this deviation: [link]
The hearts are really unfocused Christmas lights taken using custom vignetting.

it's beautiful
love the emotion, and the composition itself
and the combination of the water trickling down with your wistful (?) expression, while holding the cig, and the hearts in the background.
excellent shot

smoking kills slowly. no need to rush)

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

JeanFan In reply to PaperBombs [2008-02-23 22:39:21 +0000 UTC]

smoking slowly mutates the dna in your cells. this causes the cells to proliferate uncontrollably ( becoming cancer) and eventually metastasizing, eroding into an artery or obstructing a bronchus, thus killing you
if you have 'strong' dna able to fix the mutations, smoking would just damage your lung's cilia among other things...and you'll die of emphysema or something but at least it won't be cancer
