 I was going to pass on either of the exclusive challenges, and then suddenly had the idea of creating a silhouette of the devil and capturing against a fiery backdrop. The definition isn't quite as good as I would have liked but I'm quite pleased with the result.

Traced and cut out the silhoette, created a suitable background in P/S and then photographed the cutout against the backdrop.

Well, I screwed up. This wasn't an 'existing' artwork of any kind before shooting, being a combination of a silhouette and a background, put together purely for the shot. But -- apparently that counts as a collage and as there is no 3-D element added, as in Rose8699's The 80s, ET challenge entry, this makes it a literal interpretation.

Lesson learned - onward and upward - hopefully.
