2 images (obviously). Superimposed individual features of my own face onto the tree in semi-transparent layers. Played with hues, color sat, and cutout filter.
Uh oh! LoTR effect here ;) There seems to be a bluish tint to it. I'm not sure if that's intended or by accident. I like it when you experiment and are constantly trying new things Jimmy. Great job on this "inconspicuous" image ;)
Hmm...I didn't even notice the face ahaha. I wouldn't have thought it's two images, but now that you say it, I see it! At first, I just really liked the photo for its dark mood. I'd almost say you should crop out the right-most tree and have this as a vertical shot (to emphasize the vertical lines of the trees). It might draw more focus to the face-tree, too. Very nice!
This is great work. The key being that you started with a well composed and balanced shot of an interesting tree. I can see many people trying something like this with not nearly as good an outcome.
