well, i'm honored that you thought it worthy of playing with. i'm frightened by the brightness of it, but the more i look at it the more i appreciate your take. thank-you. i offer my own play, though i am reminded of a piece some while ago in my blog entitled 'may mass...'. well, so here is yet another take.
I should have mentioned though, that if the source files are large they will take a while to load, and the effect will not be instantaneous until both images are in the viewer's browser cache.
That's the thing about individual vision isn't it, it's individual. You being the maker get to be right and so does the viewer.
I'd say between the 4 versions we have here, I agree with your original assesment, your black&white on your blog is the better. My version violates the mood of the scene.
Thank-you, Clo. you may be amused by the fact that i merely set my camera atop a -- yes, again -- phone booth [the very one shown here recently] and let the timer snap this shot while i was talking on the phone.
Everytime someone writes Christopher Steven, I read Christopher Robin. A.A. Milne wrote Winnie the Pooh and used his son Chistopher Robin as the human friend of Winnie the Pooh, the real bear Winnie was Canadian and Christopher Steven B. is Canadian or at least lives in Canada. One is soft, fuzzy, and, prone to getting in trouble. the other is a cartoon character from a nearly 100 year old chidrens story.
And I'm just having fun with the connection at the expense of my artist friend - I hope he takes in in the light hearted spirit I intend it to be.
i was oft called christopher robin before reaching the age of 10, and actually did bear some resemblance to the fellow. read the books, watched the cartoons. did not have friends who were honey gluttons, though...

Who knows the mouseover html trick?
I just saw it on a blog today.
That way the best of both worlds could be had.
Like this:
<img src="url of normal image" onmouseover="this.src='url of mouseover image'" onmouseout="this.src='url of normal image'" />
and pay attention to the double- vs. single-quotes.
hey, thanks, Gary. Even i could handle that bit of html. uh. not that it took me about 10 tries..
yer welcome, Christopher Steven.

I've got a rumbly in my tummy for some honey, or something like that Pooh would say.
Oh, and I know someone who's a glutton for cherry in the middle cookies.
Well, that blows the theory that you're actually Steven B. Christopher.
