Loads of processing, too much to mention here, if anyone is interested in how this was done then if I get enough interest I will write a tutorial or something.
(Tutorial now available in the "How`d they do that?" section)
This is a self-portrait, the skull was a picture taken at work of a skull used in the Oral Surgery department. His name was Fred.
I used my most basic equipment, the 300D and kit lens. dont know why, couldn`t be bothered to get the 5D out I guess, (my three year old daughter uses my 300D a lot these days).
Scorewise I think this could go two ways. 6.8ish or if its not received well, which I predict, 5.5

Well this will be short and sweet. You done real good here! Excellent usage of the expert editing and really clean PS work here. Creative, compelling and creepy. I don't really have a whole lot to say about improving this shot. You have created something more along the lines of a painting than a photo. This isnt a bad thing, but you have presented us a piece of artwork that I believe is what you wanted. Great detail, great lighting, great idea. The voters rewarded you well - though not to sure abou tthose 12 at the bottom - maybe just those anti expert editing nazis.
I can't say that I "like" this. It's not the kind of image I would hang anywhere in my home. But I must say, it's well done. Fantastic editing job. The best really. ~10
This is obviously going to score high... it is compelling, bizarre, disgusting, cool... you name it, this work has it all! Good job and good luck and thanks for a new favorite! 10 for me! :)
Oh my word. I have a guess at who this is based on pre-validation questions and it's true, you are rotten. A nicely done, truly disgusting image, though.
See how this photograph was created!
