Boo !!
A friend of my daughter. I asked her to flip her head up and snapped the shutter when her hair hit mid-flight!
12 September, 2008…
Just got notified that this picture was nominated to be showcased in the Pay It Forward group. It was nominated by Diana Calvario and this is what she had to say about it:
“My favorite nomination goes to: Boo! from Billyboy
This face is so expressive it even breaks the silence of a room just from looking at it! I just love it!”
Needless to say I am totally chuffed, and as a direct result of this, Diana now has a secured place in heaven as well as in my heart. She’s a very talented artist living in a small country not far from where I live. Please check out her pf… you’ll by happy you did!
Boo !! belongs to the following groups:
Humour Captured, Mood & Ambience - Strictly Photos, Pay It Forward and Strictly Human Faces Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints and Framed Prints

Billy, I really think you should consider being a commercial photographer..
I think your images would really make a statement for the company’s product.
You would be very successful

did she like the cat morph you did ?? how could she not its excellent ;-)
billyboy replied
Carrie, she IS the cat morph!
Unfortunately, she’s not able to change back any more… and that’s why we keep her in the cellar. She digs vodka and we often chat way into the night. I think she’s happy. How could you not be with cool fur like that?
Thanks for asking… I’ll pass it on!
Carrie Gardner
hahaha sounds like my kinda girl… Vodka is my weakness… or should i say Buzz hehe

Yup, see the Medusa connection… but this girl was just so cute and innocent…
Well, maybe not so innocent…
Thanks mate for finding this and bringing it back from the depths… always been one of my personal favs!
