niiiiice one... pipeworks are such a great subject, even without, but especially with #googlyeyes :D
Yeah, I don't know, the Pinocchio association with long nosed specimens comes up a lot, but... especially in this case, without a mouth, how could he have told those lies that made his nose grow?!? hmmm?
good you came back in the am again, made for a very nice and soft lighting of the scene.
haha, heres my association with punishment by some witcher comes.
lies and sins > punishment > his nose elongated, and maybe he was transformed into this numb / mouthless form. if it looks too 'stretched' ... well, what can I do with my associations? (wink) anyway thats how our brain works!
I am glad, you loved it. probably more pipeworks will follow.. one day! @googlyeyes
ps.
yes, lighting is a key to the good photo work
sometimes, sole lighting without object is enough for the subject of a photo, itself!
