I loved those photographs by Phillipe Halsman. ^^ Dali is just so insane, and I loved how he just captured that! How did you do this, anyway?

Yes, thank you for trolling . Men do grow hair on their legs with out shaving sometimes. Weird huh?

MarieCuts In reply to RandallSurreal [2011-11-07 22:49:46 +0000 UTC]

Really weird. I don't understand why people don't get that body hair is ugly. Men shouldn't be ashamed to shave it off or wax or something. I'm always played around with by men with hairy legs/pits and when I see their ugly hair I break up with them. That is just so gross. I'll never date a man that has body hair. They have to be as smooth as me. I just don't understand why people don't get it. Ew.

How did you manage creating this?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

RandallSurreal In reply to lilake1 [2011-11-07 20:19:38 +0000 UTC]

First I hung the painting of my wife's (which was originally supposed to be an awesome triptic of a skull she did but we couldn't find for some reason). The mirror I hung and used a pen to wedge out the bottom corner to give it a sort of floating look. My sister is on the right holding the chair just like in the original.
This was before I had a remote trigger so I set the focus and placed the shutter on a 2 second timer. I ran to my spot jumped up with the book popping the dice out while my wife on the left threw a big cup of water across the plain. It was a lot of fun!

It's the dice that is a nice touch, and good call leaving out the cats, PETA would be all over you know a days... lol
