I heard a bunch of noise in the cupboard and there they were. They looked like this right out of the bag. I said, "Boys, portrait?" They jumped at the opportunity. Seriously, the success of an image like this lies in shooting the main set and the faces under the same lighting conditions. Without the same directional lighting, the image will fail from a technical standpoint.

Hey! Is this some sort of comment on those of us who are follicly challenged? hehe

 

Tremendous idea with terrific execution. (no pun intended)

Looking at this image, I am embarrassed by my meager skills. I do not even know how a person would approach an image like this. It opens the door of possibility! You've really taught me something about bringing dreams alive.

Great work, great use of light, cameras and composition. Mastery at Photoshop.

 

If its hard to make a good photograph, its even harder to make many to conceive an end result as the Mashed Potatoes.

 

For those of you who still concider that PS is graphic art, try construct in your mind and film the pictures required to put together this kind of work! Then, take a camera or two and make the pictures with the quality and assemblage requirements for the end result and see how EASY it is.

 

Imagination and technique open new boundaries in photography...to point and shoot is just the begining of everything. Open your mind and take the challange of making a great photo composite come together, then talk to us about photography and graphics.

 

GREAT WORK!!!

I think your lighting staff, set director, photographer and production specialists should all be given a HUGE raise ;-)) Simple elements, with humourous creativity and perfect execution! We are not worthy! :-))

On a side note I think it's so sad that there are people would actually give you a 1 for aesthetics, inexcusable :-((

Thanks, Leo and Barry, for your inspiring words! Not much to say about the "1". The rating system is confusing to many and there are a bunch of people out there that feel that digital manipulations don't fall into a photography category. Perhaps they don't realize or care about the time and effort it took to plan and execute each photo in this image. No need to fret - the overall response has been wonderful and that's what matters most of all to me. I've added another face to the image - I have to figure out how to load it here.

 

Best regards, Dick

Phenomenal work! However, I must disclose the fact that I am an active member of the SPCS (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Spuds).

 

I'd love to track you down and bring you to justice (if we ever meet - I'll buy you a drink!).

 

Thank you for creating such a compelling work.
