DREAM WINDOW----'A Christmas Story' tribute.
Greetings everyone. I finally finished my tribute to 'A Christmas Story'. Jean Shepherd's classic story of a boy in search of a Red Ryder BB Gun. The lighting on the sign, frosted windows, snow, etc. were postwork. There are other things I wanted to do to it, but I've got to let it go and get back to some Christmas projects. Hope ya like it. Merry Christmas! 50.

Hi five oh,
Yes, I LIKE IT! Jean Shephard is one of my all time heroes. In the 70's, his radio shows of story-telling, ad-libbing and kazoo music played nightly in my studio while I worked. A wonderful tribute...  Sven |

great subject and beautiful parts you used there, but i agree with Jantim - It really lacks of the warm xmas-shop-window-flair we all know.
greets froyd

Hi everyone, Thanks for your comments. I had turned the color saturation down to give it an old feel and had it much less than it is, almost black and white, but turned it up a couple notches. Sometimes you try things and they don't convey the way you want.
When everyone notices the same thing, there's something to it. I had also planned to insert a picture of my 10 year old nephew as a reflection in the window, but thought it might be too busy.Pilou, I can't wait to see that movie. Bye all. 50. |

Hi everyone, I took the 'cooler-warmer' comments on the lighting to heart and I think it helped. I also put it into a card format. Thanks for your input.
Hi aminuts, I baked and did alot of shadow painting. Bye all. 50. |
