From the flames and ashes...

I think this one of the more successful of the face juxtapositions. The colors and lines work well with the shape and dark tonality of the face. Were you in an eerie mood?

I came across the background shot, which was a sunset picture taken from a moving car, and figured it could work well with something. I've always liked my David/monk picture, so tried that combination.

Compilation of three different images. Comments?

Great effect in this, Kim. It made me think of Jane Eyre. Excellent work.

Fantastic capture & excellent work for unusual effect, really pleasing to the eye!!! Best regards.

Thanks! Just having fun with compilations...

very nice effect and nice colors. I especially like the shadows around the eyes.

Neat shot, I love the facial expression and color in this shot, neat effect! Were any filters used on this? Is this multiple images?

 

Well done, and interesting:)

Magnifico trabajo tecnico,,, luz , color y belleza, saludops cordiales KIM:

OOPS, I slipped into my Julio impersonation again.

 

Great

 

ciao

Thanks, everyone. This has a blurred sunset as the background. The other image used was already a compilation of my son's face merged with a concrete garden monk. So it's really 3 images altogether.

Nice PS work; like the bright eyes!

 

Regards...

Great bit of PS work, Kim. The colours and tonal range make for a dramatic image. I can see it as a CD cover if you can persuade either David or the monk to become a rock star :-) regards - Colin

Colin, funny you should say that - my #2 son is working on a CD right now, but this is my #3 son and he is the only NON-musical son out of four!! Thanks for visiting.

This is great work, Kim, although the vertical striations made me think that I was looking at the face of a woman with long hair at first.

 

I must say that nothing that you do matches those wonderful outdoor pictures for me, whether you're shooting birds or boats.

Sorry to intrude again but I can't get over how much he looks like me ...

 

Very Nice Image Kimi ....

Yes, the eyes are very similar. (David, NO, this man is NOT your dad!!!). :) Lannie, I posted a picture just for you.

I like the creativity of this shot. Nice idea well executed. Bravo.

Now this is a very eye-catching composite Kim. Looks like it would be a good album cover for a contemporary band. ;-)

Thanks, guys! Thomas, I may be able to talk #2 son into using it as he's working on a CD. However, he has already scooped one of my cat "creations" for the cover so I don't know if he'd be crazy about his younger brother being on his CD cover instead!

Jane Eyre?

 

Why doesn't it surprise me that your sons have musical talent. Creativity begets creativity?

 

This is a SUNSET!! Fabulous ... I had to look again to make sure that I could see it.

 

I doubt that Ken STILL looks like that ......... or do you think ........ NO!

 

okay ... I've made more comments about the comments than the image ... It's a bit on the dark side, but VERY clever & creative!

Sigh...you are an awesome artist :)
