I agree. Very alien feeling. I almost feel like Captain Kirk on a forbidden planet of stone people and one of them has just discovered me. Beam me up Scottie, please.

I discovered Flickr just a few days ago as well, but I didn't see that second texture which I'm going to try out. Love the treatment to your image and I catch the brightness of the sun when I look into it. Reality check - it's so real.

I looked at this and must of messed up my original message which was - I liked your image without the scratches. I love the desaturation of this image and the use of one color. A technique I really want to try. Your overlay looked like splatteed paint and you could try softening it with the opacity control.

Just saw Joynim's submittal - two below yours and she has a link to a scratches texture she used. You should check it out.

Bullet on the floor and dark moody color makes me think of a murder mystery. I like the subtle way you overlayed this for the concept.

Definitely an absorbing Kitty. Those eyes. He has a abstract neighbor a few submittals down showing his lime greens, too.

Halloweenish. Freddy's just about to pick up his teeth as he exits to do some damage on Elm Street. Another shot that reminds me of film.

Gorgeous portrait and processing. I am really loving these dark, monotonish treatments. That layer is fanastic and I love knowing the processing details. I definitely want to try it. Thanks for the education.

I like your mixture of two opposing structures. Great thought process. That abandoned building shot was probably a feast for glass textures. Hope you got some wonderful close ups of that.

Love how these colors pop with this overlay. Beautiful framing and nice macro.

Beautifully done. And that photographer lived in another world. Reminds me of the 1932 movie FREAKS. Dark and disturbing. Real extremes like that are not my cup of tea for an every day visual treat, but I can truly respect the artist, it's art and abnormal beauty.
