Flesh And Sand

http://www.imagechicken.com/uploads/...7032630300.jpg



a sandwich of 3 images has made to take the final result of this one .
i started with rotaration the first image in the bottom , then i have aply the image of the female ( her name is Stella ) , to bring her more close to the sand , i have use the
the sponge tool , and desaturete some colors , eraser tool , to erase some parts of the image , in the 3d image witch is a trace from a tractor , i have use the eraser tool , layer masks ,
and the final tuch was : all the images did flaten , then a dublicate of the image , hi pass filter , and then the blend mode on the 2nd image has change to give more sharpness , special on the sand .
the 3 images has taken by me with canon eos 50d .
my Photoshop is the cs4 extended version 11.0.1.

thanks for watching .

Kostas, You certainly have a unique vision. The concept is very good and I think that you executed it well. As presented I would take a little off the top.

I agree with Denise about trimming a bit from the top to move the face more to the ROT's position. May I ask what inspired you to put a woman's face in the sand? It's quite creative and just was wondering what your thought process was here.

Kostas I think this is cool. I might just straigten it a bit if it were mine. Quite OOTB and I really like it.

Hi Julie , the idea was to put just a face on the sand , i dont have a lot images from people , and some of the images i have with other persons , wasnt so close i wanted it , plus this female is my girl friend , and she gave me her license,
to put her face in internet . She is the only person i have many images , she really knows how to stand up in the front of the camera as she was a model before .
thats all .

kostas, this is kinda spooky!!! and i like it!! i agree with the crop suggestion. the vision for this is pretty cool. you trip me out, kostas!!!!:D

thank U Harold i really value your opinion .

Kostas, another very creative image. I agree about a little off the top. I especially like the hints of dress color
showing through - it gives it a look of feathers:)
