The prize graphic for the blog guessers!!

Seven people guessed the identity of my secret blogger several posts down. Yes, it was Michael Parker.

As promised, here are, in clockwise order, starting with the 'child'; Rae Pater, Berenice Dunford, Erin Monahan, JB Rowell, Michelle Buchanan, and C. Allen! My cold is lousy, so if I misspelled your name, please correct!!!!! I can barely think. Oh...the background is my distorted solarization of the top of Michael's head against his fantastic artwork (also solarized). You'll find a set of his jogging legs in the upper lefthand corner in case you want to run from all this FAST;-)

(PS Lyle Daggett is missing, but the only photo he has of himself is the one appearing in MiPo this issue. I know they prefer to have unique photos there, if possible, so just imagine Lyle here, then go read MiPo and you'll see what he looks like. You'll also see a photo of Michael with his column in that issue and one of me, circa the seventies, that d liked)

Thanks Pris, that's great!

Pris said...

Glad you like it, Michelle. You're perfect sitting in the fairy dust!

Berenice said...

Looking good Pris. What an interesting collection of people ;-)

Pris said...

Hi Michael...names are above the graphic , if you haven't found them yet, and B, we won't mention that cutie with the leaves in her hair:-)

J.B. Rowell said...

This is so cool Pris - I don't know what solarized means - but it turned out great - despite me with my smokin' head.

Pris said...

The naval is in B's leaves, Ellen:-)

J.B. solarized means to reverse the colours in an image. I did that with the background, then added you guys. I used the mist that was behind your head in your photo and kept it when I cropped. After I set Michelle down into fairy dust, created by another commend involving color adjustment, I cloned some of the 'dus' over your head. So see? Your brain waves are in the solar system!

Pris, nice collage composite.

I found your comments in my blog and Cafe Cafe asking for a photo of me -- I emailed you this evening, before I went to your blog and saw the composite, so I may have gotten back to you too late -- c'est la vie. But I like what you've done with the photos you had available.

Pris said...

Hi Lyle
Next time we'll get you in and yes, understood that the one photo you had was spoken for elsewhere.

Michael...such cute legs. We couldn't have those not in there;-)

Hi Erin,
