 Not really expecting too much for this. More like just something to enter for the team.

Kind of a variation on my Halloween costume. What I'm sitting on is the giant heap of tacky green carpet we just ripped up from our floors to be replaced with fake wood. Whoopee.

I would have probably come up with something better, but it was too hot to think properly. Yikes *goes and gets bottle of ice water*

post challenge:
Well, it actually did better than I thought.
Thanks everybody, for the votes, comments and favs. Means a lot ^-^

Oooh. I like it. The massive size of the foamy scrap stuff makes you look small, like a dark pixie or something. Love the processing, by the way. Nice hat and boots.

I keep coming back to this photo again and again. It's so unique and wonderful! Like others have said you look like a magic fairy or a doll.The pose is adorable and so are you! Your outfit is both innocent and sophisticated at the same time and the boots add interest to the composition. Technicals are very well done IMHO. Bravo!

There is just something about this photo...the grass on the left makes it look like tiny scraps of mats, yet there you are, full size on top of them. Weird. I love it.

A lovely artistic rendition and a breath of fresh air, that is, this visual breaks from the rest to present us an interesting fanciful study that is highly complemented by the makeup, the attire and then the wonderful pose. Bump.

I think there is too much brightness on the trash and not enough on the subject. It is like a picture of trash with a girl instead of a picture of a girl with trash.
