For those very, very few of you dear folks, who decide to drop by and leave a word or two - my sincere thanks and appreciations, with the full understanding of your busy schedule.

Long time no see, George, as you have not published a picture in quite sometimes. Nicely done montage with the clown who really looks like he is holding a picture of himself. Well done!

Hey George, great to see you and another of your gorgeous images, just my own face... send in the clowns... SUPERB, thanx, M, (*_*)

Hi George,

Why is 48 such a special number? (had a blast reading your intro).

Great colors, nicely catched expression on clowns face, and interesting pp work.

Great image George. That clown and the picture of himself look quite identical.

Glad to see you back,George! Nothing from you since last April!...Good 48 ..I still do not know why...maybe are you also 48 years old now...hard to say! .........But I know that I like your picture! This is very well done! Good pp work! Well composed image! Thanks for sharing it with us! Michel

Ha, so you are on TL as well:) I also opened an account here not long ago, but have posted only one photo so far. As I said already, it is a great artwork to me, such a symbolic one, he seems to be holding a mirror...

Cheers
Alexander

Hi George,
This is really nice, the colours are what makes this photo. Composition has obviously been looked after and the DoF isolates your subjects well.
Great shot,
Jako

george,
I share your thoughts about the masks,and the picture is very beautiful with that colors.
kind regards

Hi George,

Hi G!
Who is the clown? Someone running for President? (as the photo is in the USA...)

I'm going to close my account at TL, because I don't have time for so many sites. You can see my photos at TrekEarth (xuaxo).
Season's greetings, Francisco (xuaxo at TrekEarth).

ps: so happy I am for my insomnia

Hello George,

I'll soon be singing an aria from "Die Tote Stadt" by Eric Korngold and I chose my costume based upon this costume. I can't use make up because I only wear it for that one aria, but I have the scarf, the hat and the striped shirt. Thanks for the idea.

The aria is about a man who was a dancer in his earlier life and he's reflecting back on how he both won and lost love while he danced as a clown on stage.
