@Nick Passantino: I appreciate that Nick, thanks :)
An interesting portrait and effects, Lorraine. The racial origin of your subject interested me.

@Michael Skorulski: Thanks Michael, she had what I look for in an Income Tax Consultant: INTELLIGENCE AND QUIETUDE :)
Yikes, it is time to do that again. Great portrait and subject matter.

At least there are no visible tears. Nice finish here!

@martie: She's probably kind enough to cry for me, but she kept it inside ;)
Excellent, Lorraine! It is that time of year! Wonderful capture of the facial expression!

@Betty: Thanks a lot, she helped me as much as she could, I like that in my consultants ;)
The dreaded Tax Return. Filling those things out brings shivers down my spine...

@Richard_Irwin: Luckily for me i didn't feel the frost so much this year, considering the cold we've had to endure ;) lol
dang, lor... did you HAVE to remind everyone? :P lol
interesting result, gotta love it!

@laughingwolf: INCOME TAX TIME there I've said it lol, awful isn't it? ;)
Very nice processing, Lorraine. I think it is very interesting that your tax lady and our lady Bella decided to emerge today wearing similarly processed styles. Does this mean we are both running out of pix?

@Viewfinder: Now I know what you mean, and no I have enough photos to fill one daily for a couple of years ;)
Great photo and processing Lorraine, I realy like this shot. Interesting, you could start a trend here for everyone to take a photo of something related to tax time. How about hard working citizens with empty pockets and politicians spending big!

@Barbara: LOL Brilliant, Barbara ;) thanks a lot!
Yoshiyuki already did it and submitted the documents and we already know how much we'll get back.... not even enough to pay the doctors'fees for one month! Taxing people who work...I can understand; taxing people who are retired and live out of a pension.....I don't undestand!

@Japanalia: That's just downright mean Gabriela, what kind of world have we created that such a system is in place?
Oh the dreaded tax! Cool shot Lorraine!

@Stunner: Thanks a lot Stunner :)
Every time I think I should work on my taxes I grab my camera and run. Oops, time to go shooting.

@Michael Rawluk: Good thinking Michael, if WE all did that, the govt would have to re-visit those taxation policies, wouldn't they?
Loved the processing mon amie - but not the process in the photo LOL - lots of grumpy people this time of year as inflation (and taxes) increase and wages decrease n'est-ce pas?
24 Mar 2008 11:46am
@Janice Thomson: Indeed, years ago I use to think that my money went for programs to help those who needed it the most, I know better now so yes I'm very upset with the Govt...
nice self portarit being its tax man time, DONT REMIND ME !

@alex centrella: Hey Alex, NOT a self-portrait, you can see my mug on the 'about' page ;)...oh yeah taxes...Legislated Thievery...

A very nice portrait Lorraine. Your processing has me mesmerized. Love the geometric background and the pattern in her sweater. Great work!

@Ron: I appreciate that Ron, thanks a lot :)
Geez you just reminded me that I have to get somebody new to do my taxes, does she venture into Ontario? The poor woman looks very tired.
24 Mar 2008 8:07pm
@JoeB: LOL Actually she's with H&R Block, which I'm sure have a branch in your area...;)

24 Mar 2008 9:44pm
@tyan: So it's not just Canada that's ridiculous? poor you, I know the feeling...
I really love the pp on this one, Lorraine!! Sooo, you don't want to hear that I've e-filed mine already and have received my refund?? 'K, won't tell you then... LOL
24 Mar 2008 10:29pm
