This was originally meant to be entered into the Beauty in the Everyday challenge. With basic editing I didn't like how it turned out so I decided to have some fun with it and post it here.
It's a plastic trash bag. The trickiest part was getting the bag to stand still for the long exposure. I taped some string to the top and taped the other end to a kitchen cabinet to hold it open. I left lights on for a couple seconds and then painted light with a small flashlight.
In PS:
convert from raw
rotate/crop
various basic adjustments
curse because it didn't look good
more basic adjustments
curse some more & decide to not enter in challenge

Once again Fractalius saved the day. I see a person coming out of some type of extruder, hence the name "metamorphosis".
WOW ,. that light bit in the middle looked like an arm with fingers at first, then after i posted my comment i had another look .. it really does look like a nude sitting with her head thrown back and her right arm raised high .. brilliant .. !! :)
i love the effect .. it looks like an alien landscape sort'v .. and some very interesting textures and shapes going on that seem like suggestions of ppl or animals ... :)
