***********************************************************
I hope I haven't used anything forbidden here (sometimes it's good that I don't know much about the work in Photoshop:)

that's what I've used:
selection - invertion - desaturation - motion blur - diffuse glow - contrast - painting - dodge/burn - lighting+curves.
***********************************************************

PS. I always make self portraits (as well as all my other pictures) myself.

I liked this one! As Daniel mentioned, very artsy. I hope this does not differ too much from the original - while noone will probably ask for a DQ now, be careful with the motion blur effect. If you add something that hasn't been in the original photo, it is construed as adding a major element. If there was some motion blur to begin with, enhancing it is OK.

I'm just saying this as I can forsee seeing one of your photos on the front page soon, so just wanted to make you aware of the details...

Best of luck in future challenges!

funky surreal photo. I enjoy all the special effects, but your subject matter is so good I'd be interested in seeing just that. 10

Has the dnmc police visited this image? Well, it is a nice piece of art. Bumping to 8 to offset the object counters and those blind to art.

Very interesting concept. Had a little trouble discering what the woman was at first - maybe that was your point, though.

Editing needs some work especially at the top of the record. the play between the record and the shadow behind it is distracting to the concept.
