Challenge: Things That Go Together (Advanced Editing I)
Camera: Olympus C-750UZ
Location: Alamogordo, NM
Date: Jan 31, 2004
Aperture: f 3.2
ISO: 50
Shutter: 1/4 sec
Date Uploaded: Feb 1, 2004

 Put the edges of two mirrors together at about 120 degree angle. Camera in the middle, my wife and I head-to-head positioned so that we each had half a head show up at the join and a whole head on the other side. Cropped out half of each whole head. Cloned out as much of the center line where the mirrors met as I could. Took the contrast down just a bit to help hide the skin changes.

Wow, you and your wife do look a lot alike! Spooky! I can't wait to hear how this was done!

I like the shot and the division in the middle is almost perfect but not quite and her side in the middle is really out of focus for some reason compared to the sid on the right. A 6

interesting...

interesting idea! Compositionally sound. I think maybe the feel is a little soft though. Perhaps a bit more direct lighting and black and white would be better.

Clearly a result of too many Vulcan mind melds! Nice work in the 'darkroom.

I can't grasp the concept
 02/03/2004 06:14:29 AM
The idea is clever; the result is kind of gimmicky and unsettling.

This is a very clever shot. I know you wish your wife had a slight smile so the morphed image was more even around the mouth but very good none the less.

unique idea!
I would have done a bit more post editing on the forhead to remove the line from the eyes to the hair line.

Very well done.

Very cleverly done! Congratulations. (you're right, you do!)

Very interesting effect.... at first glance I wasn't sure what I was seeing... clever.

How in the world did you get this done. You know the saying "Husband and wife tend to look like each other over the years"? You just proved that thought right...you guys really look like each other and do fit well together. This shot should place in the to 20. Good job!

thats funny - almost a little disconcerting, the way it is as though your heads appear severed from your bodies. crazy how well your faces fit together. creative.

Well executed and creative take on the "we're a matched set"

Very neat image! I'm guessing you have a 2in1 feature on your camera as I do!

Fun idea, well executed. :)

Spooky. Very clever. Could the lighting have been better?
