    For 7 Euros in a local art shop I bought a polystyrene head - a quick coat of paint and handy microphone stand later and I have a very patient assistant/model for fun and experimentation.

    apologies but shots taken on a canon :)

    I don't have the heart to tell him that there's no viewfinder on the back of that camera...

    Hiya Harry!!:th_salute:

    (I feel bad for Harry, must be hard working as a photo assistant without eyes...or hands..and no hair.)

    :rofl: Wonderful and I'm thrilled for both you and Harry, Kevin.

    Perhaps he'll be helping you with some new Aperture 3 videos?:biggrin:

    You seem to be taking the "shop window dummies" thread a little too seriously, don't you think? :cool:

    Meet *my* Harry, my long-standing assistant! (Yes, that's really his name). He is not quite as handy for lighting practice, because of his facial hair...

    [​IMG]

    ... and it doesn't ever get much better...

    [​IMG]

    ... but he's always along on my photo walks, and always happy to "help" :smile:

    Rudy, great shots of the other Harry!!!
    - Number 2 is great of the box
    - Number 4 I might like better in 1:1 format (remove some on the right to have is leg in right bottom corner) - not sure if it would work for everybody

    Number 1 is also good, but then I prefer the second (and comparable story with 3 and 4).

    Thanks Joep! :smile:

    I should mention that all of my above were taken with Canon equipment, I didn't pick up my E-PL1 until yesterday. (But I m about to post in the E-PL1 image thread, to redeem myself :wink:).

    I also like days I don't have to think (at the moment enjoying some wine after the home-cooked spaghetti)

    But I "think" this is getting a little :eek: fftopic:.
    - Let us hope they can forgive us, please...
