Something for the Weekend - Part 219 - Sold a lemon!

[davescm]

Thanks to all who took part in our previous 'bridge' challenge.

This week, I heard someone mention that they had been 'sold a lemon'. That got me wondering what images our SFTW team would make with such a subject. So here we are, I've  supplied the lemons, what can you make with them?

The “rules”:

• Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
• Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
• Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
• There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
• The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

To download the image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

Have fun!

Adding the pips was a clever touch, Rollan 🙂

A quick work, the girl is a Firefly support girl

[davescm]

Nice one floramc!

'...the girl is a Firefly support girl...'

Her broken fingers gave that away 🙂

[floramc]

Yet one could believe I am very bad at photoshop, so I had to credit the author 😄

thank you kindly, Dave!

[AlanGilbertson]

To be fair: the face, the hair, the massive neck ligaments, and the headphone-cord-to-nowhere were also clues. 😹

[davescm]

'...the massive neck ligaments...'

I thought she'd been working out, or having a carrot implant 🙂

Dave

[Jacob Bugge]

The working out could also include legging it, especially with the left one.

[floramc]

Body shaming the Ai... see where this world is going ....

[@mj]

I agree. Body shAIming is where it seems to be going!

[floramc]

And I tried to clean the cable as it was landing somewhere inside the dress. I thought: this way you can imagine she has an iPod behind her back. So 2005

Lemons chillin in the frig. 

[davescm]

You used a freeze frame then... 🙂

Dave

[Nick Gioia]

Yeah. Haha. It's a photo from in my frig. I should have put isicles on them and called it frozen lemonade. lol
