perfect skin ?

[Thunderchild]

ok I walked into the surgery the other day to cancel an appointment for my dad. the secretary well her skin was like flawless and white (infact that perfect that it was unatractive to me and I'm drawn to pale smooth skin but that looked like a manikin).

how is such "perfection" obtained ? is it natural in some people lots of makeup work ? and if so do they know its no like the prettiest thing on earth ?

[weeal]

maybe she was ill lol

you type with an accent, what is it??

[angel-cake]

This is a very odd question, and worded in a confusing way too......

[weeal]

hi angel, yeah hes better at photography than typing lol

[Thunderchild]

yea weel your right I want to "shoot" the words onto the screen as fast as a picture is captured actually this question stemmed from my thoughts on pictures I took of my well gf the other day she's not as pale as that and obviosly has the minor "defects" in her skin we all have but when I was confronted with somebody that had only one tone of colour in her skin and a smoothness that was at the point of defying she was human I was taken aback

what I'm saying angel is do some people naturally have such pale skin I mean it was like looking at plastic no rinkles nothing you know like if its make up etc it's so overdone it is off putting.

ps www.simons-photography.com its comming nicely (I hope) and I must have put up more pictures in 4 days than I did in 4 months. And no I won't be putting up images of my girl in underware

Some people are just naturally very pale, apparantly people used to come up to my mum and ask if I was ok when I was little as I was so naturally pale.

I wear make up to give me a bit of colour haha :)

Make up makes me look older too, have been I'd for cigarettes a number of times lately when had little or no make up on and I'm 30 this year!

hm well from what you say jenna there are types and types I suppose I am releived to know that she probably dosen't spend hours at home making her skin that way on purpose

[weeal]

simon that site is looking brill, hope youre pleased with it yourself ! the pics are excellent

[Thunderchild]

yes I am pleased with the site but feeling a bit guilty that I have not made any site as such merley installed and configured a program (php script) that runs things on my behalf, but it does leave me time to go back over images I had forgotten about and play with them and then upload them.

so yes i suppose it was a great change because it put me back in control, I only ever learnt my limited miserable html skills to enable me to show my work to the world but it started to leave me little time to actually concentrate on the photography which was the whole point in the begining

I'm glad you like my pictures I'm also learning to be less critical of myself (and my equipment) and feel more easy about publishing pictures I was unsureof if they were fit for "showing off" or not but I suppose showing them and getting feedback is the only way I'll learn. by the way there is a feature were anyone (you don't have to register) can put a comment on a picture either way I want honest critique.

What's the website?

[Thunderchild]

http://www.simons-photography.com

I'm uploading images daily as its just starting and this time I intend to make a show of it hell I pay for the space (500 MB) might as well use it

[weeal]

yep you got good feedback on your last post on photography, and glad everyone put their tuppence worth in, even tho the site isnt manually created, as you say it leaves more time for the fun stuff, and it looks much more professional anyway

I think i left a comment on one bit of the site, right at the beginning but instead of Al, it says 0Al for some reason lol

[Thunderchild]

ok thanks I think you commented before as well as that name came up. 3 days after our other discussion I had to tear the site down and reinstall the latest version of coppermine (the php sript that runs the show) because it was going haywire. that was the other thing I was afraid of when starting this redo it all thing if I trust my site to software it must work sadly the first one didn't (coppermine 1.4.10) now I have the latest and supposedly stable 1.4.16 and will be very upset if it goes bazukas like the other day I already had 28 images up and had to reinstall it all and reupload images but so far so good

[weeal]

on a more serious note...

... I've run out of sweeties and cant be bothered goin to the shops, sigh

lol

[Thunderchild]
