Jeannette, I wondered what you were up to when I drove through your area a few weeks ago.
Thanks for commenting, Doug
Guest - May 20, 2007 01:21 PM EDT Very creative. Yes I think it should be in a childrens book for sure! Very colorful and playful and you made them come to life in a positive way.

Guest - Sep 18, 2006 01:27 PM EDT Hi Mystic, A great movie to be sure. Thank you for commenting, these are fun to create when I have the time. At the moment I'm on a photo road trip around the midwest and I'll probably make some more when I get back to California.
Doug :)
Guest - Sep 17, 2006 11:39 AM EDT Doug, This is great work and wonderful imagination . Makes me think of the play I saw " Little Shop Of Horrors" "Feed me Seymour"!! LOL
Guest - Aug 05, 2006 06:47 PM EDT Hi Tania, Thank you for your kind words and support. I enjoy creating these and they're not all that difficult to make.
Doug :)
Guest - Jul 28, 2006 12:38 AM EDT this is great. You have great imagination. it does not matter how clever you are manipulating photos if you dont have the imagination you dont get the same end result. love the photo
Guest - Jul 20, 2006 10:12 AM EDT Hi Jessica & Vincent, Thank you for your kind comments, I appreciate your support. I'm currently on a road trip around the U.S. with my wife and we've taken thousands of new photos which will become core imaes for more of these.
Best Wishes, Doug :)
Guest - Jul 20, 2006 02:53 AM EDT Wow,you truely have an amazing talent,good luck in which ever direction you take.
Guest - Jul 19, 2006 09:35 AM EDT Hey Doug, i couldn't help thinking about Alice in wonderland when i saw this, i would have said a more sinister version, but i've always found that scene when the flowers debate what kind of flower alice is quite disturbing.
Guest - Jun 27, 2006 12:32 PM EDT Hi Mel, Thank you for your kind comments. Several others have suggested a children's book and I may look at this. Currently I'm putting together some images, in a book form, documenting my "trip to the edge of the world" which is a variation of the same thing. Some samples from that series are in my gallery here. This particular image won't be included in that series. I appreciate your thoughts and suggestions.
Doug :)
Guest - Jun 27, 2006 12:44 AM EDT WOW, WOW, WOW, I have never seen anything like this before, I love it. Very comical and incredibly well done! Ever thought about doing children's story book illustrations?
Guest - May 28, 2006 03:05 PM EDT Hi Talsi,
Thank you for your kind words, I've been playing with digital imaging for over 20 years and also do it professionally. None of this is terribly difficult, it just takes a little practice.
Doug :)
Guest - May 27, 2006 05:11 PM EDT What an eye catching image. You muat have a whole lot more patience than I dto do this
Guest - May 27, 2006 01:28 PM EDT Hi Alex, I appreciate your comment.

Guest - Apr 28, 2006 08:58 PM EDT Cute.
Guest - Apr 04, 2006 12:37 PM EDT Hi Lulu, I appreciate your comments. This was created from a number of different plants using various special effects filters. Just something fun to do while waiting for the rain to stop.
Guest - Apr 04, 2006 06:40 AM EDT I like this. Very clever! I'd be leaving these weeds in my garden though. Those big eyes are really cute though.
