Souvenirs
After a week on the island of Providenciales in the Turks & Caicos, all i came back with was a serious tortoiseshell pattern on my nose and face. Sunburned for the first time in my life.
{sigh} I guess that's the price one pays for floating lazily in the ocean off a white-sand beach every day for almost a week. ;-)
More to come....

Without reading your stories, I thought this photo was through photoshopping by adding the textures to your face...LOL.. This must be a serious sunburned!! Hope by the time you read this, it's already recovered! Malik

Great portrait and I hope it's much better now. Having a good time requires sacrifices sometimes, I guess :)

Wow. I've never seen anything like that on skin. Are those huge freckles? Wonderful treatment on the portrait.

Dude! I burned too in Vegas! I'm still peeling today! Hope it didn't sting like mine did. My scalp burned even with a hat on, and that was just from walking around. These days i don't think anyone is completely protected from the sun no matter how dark you are.

damn that must hurt. Makes a hell of a great shot though.
Did you manipulate the picture in any way after you took it ?
