i know you can tell it's a jade plant, but i tried something. darkroom includes adjusting some levels then greyscale and duotone with yellow and black.

You did well with this interesting Thinker image of yours in the Master of Disquise Challenge. Perhaps the biggest thing you pulled off was the disquise of that Jade Plant as a "real tree!" That added the bit of surrealism that put the image in the "Wow" category.
Good seeing and good execution.
Your lighting fit the mood well, and of course, the tiny human that you posed so well, worked wonders for the overall effect.
So, congratulations on a good one, and keep up the good work.
it's a paper cut out of the 'thinker' and lit with an led in front and then a mag-lite for four seconds of the exposure for some backlighting. not sure if everyone saw it was a house plant instead of and actual tree. oh well, i thought it was too obvious, however it seems too 'disguised' for many. still a nice score. thanks to all who commented. too bad to see not much 'mastering of disguise' in this challenge.
Im guessing this is a slow shutter with a macro of a plant. if it is this is wonderfully done. good Processing too!creative and emotive all rolled up in one. great work and good luck 10
