    Very powerful, very strong, what a brilliant shot. I think it would be one of those pieces of art where the eyes follow you around the room.
    I agree with FFS above, you can look very different!

    Wow, robert you’re looking a little scary in this shot, lucky I know that you’re a really nice guy!
    What strikes me about this shot is the eyes. We were doing Karate last night and were going through some of the etiquette involved. We were told never look your opponent in the eyes because that means you challenge them to a death match!!!
    That is exactly what this image represents to me! Please don’t hurt me!

    Thanks Deborah P, funky, Sylvia – grr, Damian – cheers the avatar’s a quick webcam shot, Leia – nice to see you again .), MB – I dont bite but have been known to nibble, and Deborah H. I uplaoded an even darker and nastier version of this a week ago but deleted it immediately – wrong time and space. I’m makng an effort to make the portraits as fresh as possible each time and so I’m glad I can pull ‘cameleon’ off…thats the real intention :) I also tried to make the eyes the focus – I’m thinking it worked. Cheers
