I've been sitting on this one for a while to be sure it was to my liking. Since I just started a new image, I guess this one is ready for show and tell.
I've wanted to do a film noir-y image, specifically a girl on one of those lounging couches. I'll be buggered if I could get a good angle out of one of those things so I took the simple head-on approach. Boring, but I think it works.
At one point I had a pair of legs laying on the floor off to one side with a pool of blood underneath. I couldn't get it to work with the mood I was going for so I too them out and added the bullet holes to the wall. Something just wasn't coming across like I was hoping until that bit of text popped into my head and now I'm happy with it!
Here's a few topics for you. follow this list and you'll never run out of material! (ever!) You just gotta love Country for great titles (it's about all I can deal with in Country & Western music, but they ARE fun!). So, I’ve cut this down from a couple hundred or so and only included stuff that even vaguely makes sense in this context. There are all listed with BMI & ASCAP, so they're real titles.
1. All the Guys that Turn Me On Turn Me Down
- Written by Gene Plott, Harold Powell &
Roni Stoneman (BMI)
2. At the Gas Station of Love, I Got the Self
Service Pump
