Well I haven't started one of these for a while so here goes.
Messing a little with halftones to finish off.
Hope you enjoy.

Thanks for the comment all. Nice stuff here you've all kept that mysterious look going I think.
Craig I like how you've done the eye.

I threw a whole lot at this photo to get rid of the little sqaures, then played with selective color, and various filters. Was fun! |

thanks, palms
and thanks, peter yes, the eye, the pupil is the key to the picture 
and i also notice that we all seem to have caught the 'mystery' theme of this image and played on it... interesting.
and kerry, you can eliminate the blocks/squares rather easily by first running the 'jpg artifact removal' filter on the image before doing anything else. i saw and did the same thing. |
