Face Trace

Questions on face trace. This is the image untraced and traced. Please click to enlarge too.

(Update - I just added the extra bright, low contrast, version here, for comparison, so you can see it all in one place. The extra bright version is good for things like seeing the hat width, his right hatbrim, his top right of forehead, etc.) 

Can anyone tell how I got any of the trace lines? For instance, can you see any of the following:

-Can you see how I traced the triangular black area at the bottom of the face? Which is the beard. Blue on side, violet on bottom, orange-ish on top.
--(Also I know it is dark at back of head, but the earlobe marks the jawline, and the jawline marks the beard. The earlobe shows up better on light versions, so assume it is there. So I got the trace line, straight down from earlobe, for back of beard.)
-Can you see how I traced the orangish, mid-face region? Blue on left, black on bottom and right. Also on his top right forehead, greenish color / and black border.
-Can you see how I traced the fingers? - from yellowish/ to blue border lines.
-Can you see how I traced his right shoulder line, where it is a dark blue/ violet border.
-Can you see his whitish highlighted left nostril, bordering the orange, and then see the darker maroon-ish bottom line of nose, and the reddish vertical bridge line of nose?
-Can you see his eyes? Can you see the corner, and then rounded edge below, of his right glasses lens?
-Can you see the shaded vertical jugular lines on his neck?
-Can you see how I used some point markers to help with the trace?

Please look at the face pics below to see other versions. For instance, in the extra bright version, you can see the hat width better, or in the light versions, you can see the forehead lines or earlobe better.

Face Pics

 

 

I posted multiple pic versions here. And that is because, I noticed each monitor is different. Newer monitors tend to show darker, older ones are lighter. The differences can be big. So I posted different versions, so you can pick out what looks best on your own monitor. With color, or less color. Also I included bright and dark versions. In the brighter versions, you can see some things better, like the full width of the hat. Then in the lighter versions the hat fades out, but then you can see the ear and neck better. In the darker versions, you can see the eyes and the hat brim lines on forehead better. So I put many versions, so you can see the differences yourself.

Opinions On Pics? - Wide Shots -

  

 

 

Update - A few things I am trying to do here. Some steps to go through.

- First, in wide shot pic, does anyone see an oval-shaped, warm-toned spot, as in, a reddish/yellow or flesh toned spot, sized about 1/3 the height of the driver's window, or also maybe about 1/3 the height of a wheel, and this spot also placed in the center of the car? And standing out against the cool tones around it, as in the cool tones ranging from the light and dark, bluish and violet tones? Let's just start with that.  Of course, the answer is yes.

So just realize, that it is also a fact, that the driver's head, in a car profile shot, shows up about half way between front and rear wheels. And head height is about 1/3 height driver's window height.

- So does anyone think it is likely, that that warm flesh toned spot, half way between front and rear wheels, about 1/3 drivers window height, standing in contrast to white/blue background behind it, in the exact same spot that a driver's head would be, "COULD BE" the driver's head in profile shot?

Again, the second thing we need to discuss. If we can't agree to that, no use going further. Because there are people I've spoken to, who are in denial about these pictures. They don't want to believe that you can even get this kind of picture. That it is impossible. Even though, I even explain to them how I did it, I offered to show the steps, I even offered to make pics of 'them' with my sec cam, to prove it, but they just will not believe it. And more than that, they will not even discuss it. It seems it is almost too painful for them to even conceive of.  So you have to believe in the reality ,of the 'possibility' of these pictures. And if you are one of those people who can't, it's no use for us to be talking any more about this, until you can get a hold of your issues.

-So then, the third thing we need to discuss is, does this flesh toned spot in center of car, which we have agreed 'could be' the driver's face, have some features of a face?

For instance, look at the enlargements. Do you see, an earlobe, a long jugular vein on neck, a highlighted nostril and a darker long nose bridge line, two dark spots where the eyes should be, a dark mustache and beard line, and then also four fingers held up near face? Also maybe less clear, a t-shirt neck line, a top hatbrim line on forehead.

Again the answer is yes to all of that. Are these features in the right spot and are the right size for a face? Again the answer is yes to that.

So what is the likelihood, that this flesh toned spot, the right position for a driver, the right size for a driver's face, with the right features for a face, with these features that are all in the right size and right place on a face, IS THE DRIVER'S FACE???

We know every car has a driver. And we know that these drivers do show up, when the pic is lightened.

So can we make a leap of logic here, that this pic, is a pic of the driver's face??

Yes or no?  And why or why not?

- More - Another thing to keep in mind, some trace lines have to be determined through some reconstruction. For instance, the back of the neck and the back of the hat is not clear in pic. But we can get a good approximation of the trace line there, by following the vertical line of back of the earlobe. Plus you can also use the jugular line to estimate the back of the neck. And you can also do the same thing with the front of the earlobe, that equals the jawline, so we can get a beardline there through that knowledge. And there are other places we can do that same kind of reconstruction too.
