    13. Auntie P (80 months ago | reply)

      Took it myself Paddy. That's why my neck looks a bit strained - holding my arms out.

    14. mord (80 months ago | reply)

      well that makes it even better... cos u can't see the screen.. unless you've got a wippy pippy flip out one.

      Brilliant

    20. Auntie P (80 months ago | reply)

      No flippy thingy at all. Pure guesswork.

    21. mord (80 months ago | reply)

      You didn't use a camera you just projected the binary image from inside your head onto Flickr, this is your perceived internal of yourself. ( I may need a holiday )

    22. Auntie P (80 months ago | reply)

      Go and have a lie down Mord! Now!

      You just need Uncle Fester to make a lovely couple!

    27. Auntie P (80 months ago | reply)

      Oh Al, I thought you'd never ask! ;)

    28. Big Al Davies [deleted] (80 months ago | reply)

      The bait given and taken!

    30. Paddy_Wight (80 months ago | reply)

      One could ask bayonet or screw fitting.... or would that be wrong?

    31. mord (80 months ago | reply)

      Pigmy, bent tip candle or, I'll stop right now, sorry.

    32. Auntie P (80 months ago | reply)

      Of course he might wish to bring his own!

      (nice new icon Paddy!)

    33. HenrysCat (80 months ago | reply)

      You look a bit like the lassie from Superman2 - you know the 3 evil dudes in black?

    34. mord (80 months ago | reply)

      Ursa, ( Sarah Douglas ) and yes Aunty P does have superhuman powers.

    35. Paddy_Wight (80 months ago | reply)

      When he said the lassie... i thought you'd changed the photo to a collie or something!! need more sleep I think or less time at the PC anyway!...

    36. hurleygurley (80 months ago | reply)

      I've been meaning to say how much I love this portrait, your new icon, since I saw it. It's beautiful and cracks me up everytime I see it. Major Morticia fan here but however hard I try to effect a look like that I still look "cute ish" - Wednesday ; { . I suspect Morticia is a significant player in your psyche, neh?

    37. Auntie P (80 months ago | reply)

      Thanks HurleyGurley. Glad you like it.

      My psyche? Well I'm not sure. I was a gothic type in the 80s and still tend to verge towards that theme. On Hallowe'en it's the safe standby ... the wig has long tangled itself into another dimension but the dress still works (and fits!). I guess it's just a face I know I can do.

    38. vanillasky [deleted] (80 months ago | reply)

      I love the new icon. This is a great photo!

      shades of siouxie sue...

    40. Auntie P (79 months ago | reply)

      Thanks Gcarraig - years ago, back in the mists of time, I did try to look like her.

    41. HERNNY (76 months ago | reply)

      magnificent!!!

    42. Auntie P (76 months ago | reply)

      Thank you.

    43. iforit [deleted] (75 months ago | reply)

      Very nicely done.

      Auntie P, every time i look at you i think... Elegance. I LOVE this pic and you do remind me a bit of siouxsie as well. :)

    47. Auntie P (72 months ago | reply)

      Thank you and thank you. The Siouxsie thing comes from so many years trying to look like her - some of it stuck I guess!

      very impressive... :)

    50. Fejér Bálint [deleted] (67 months ago | reply)

      how many ps work did you put into this? just out of curiosity.

    51. Auntie P (67 months ago | reply)

      ps work? Do you mean PhotoShop? I don't use that but I use PaintShopPro. All I had to do was remove a few distracting bits of light from the background, but not much. It was a self portrait, camera held at arm's length, and you could just about make out my arms and a few little details in the background.
