I had shot this photo for the Portrait challenge. I'd thought I'd be a little more creative than just photographing someone. This is a bust I made about 14 years ago and it's called "The Creator." I made this bust by mistake, after hating the original face that was on it. I wiped off the clay and started all over. But then there it appeared. An image, image of God stood out. So, it's a portrait of what I see what God looks like. As well, in a sculpture of it too.
I had just shot this bust. Adjusted the lighting with curves, and sharpened it a bit. Not much done other than adjusting the background color of more blackness.

This could be a creator... The face is irrelevant to the creatures and the heavy musculed shoulder is strong enough to carry the burden of responsibility for his creations..
Well what can I say.. Yes it's more of a still life shot....but I like to be creative a bit when I didn't have other resourses at the time. However, thank you for the higher votes for those who saw more than just a (non) portrait shot but, a creative way of seeing things. After nearly 14 years now, I haven't viewd this scuplture in the way as pcody stated. thanks...:) Until next challenge, happy shooting.
Different, but I thought WE were the lumps of clay. I like the way it makes me think of the concept of picturing something that can't be described. The title really helps this entry.
This is a beautiful figure although it has no "beauty" features on the face. The lighting combined with the negative space is perfect. Combined with the fact that this an "out of the box" idea, you deserve a 10.
