    How did you get Emily in Space and without a suit… tut tut tut… she will get a death of cold… you’ve obviously never heard of “Space Flu”?
    and making clones will only magnify the risk!!!

  • but, but, but . . . gosh, if I had only known. Emily, get inside this instant!

    Tin foil and pajamas… put the foil on the outside … inside its a bit too scratchy

  • I knew I should have invested in Alcoa!

    i’d be more concerned about her climbing towards darth vader up there than any old flu……

  • Hi Erich, That’s actually also Emily sitting on top of the New Hampshire mountain we had climbed that day. I turned the gamma correction way down, did some brightness / contrast filter work, and finshed up by overlaying some star cloud wisps to give it that mysterious look,

    My bet is she will wear you out with all the energy of youth still left over while you nap!

  • On the way down from the actual mountain we climbed, she was JOGGING !!!!

    Cool stuff Dave…. Kinda has a real reservation / ritualistic feel to it this one. For me a far more Terrestrial Piece than spacial…. Perhaps seen while under the influence of Peyote or mushrooms…. Love this sort of image. Nicely did!

  • Thanks Zoo. Yes, the gas cloud did remind me of mountains, so up we went. I changed the hue on clothing to match the gas colors. I am happy with the result.
