 I really wanted to use another image, but felt the amount of cloning I had to do might not pass. So I decided on this one. I have no idea how this will do. It might get strikes against it because you can see my face, even though it is distorted. Another possible out take (that would have passed) hides my face more, but I liked this image better. We'll see how it does.

Set up was a single Nikon SB-28 shot through an umbrella camera right on 1/2 power. Sorry, no setup shot this time.

very fun. the stocking flattens the models features in a really interesting way - it almost looks like a 2 dimensional mask.

certainly original, I like the effect but I would have went with a tighter crop and color

If this had been the 'Bank Robber in Pain' challenge you might well have ribboned with this :- )

the seam in the material running across the top of your head is a little distracting.

Interesting perspective and good tonal qualities. Next time, hit your thumb with a hammer as the anguish on your face isn't sincere enough.;-) Good luck!
