Maybe to much processing to still qualify as a photo.

You're freaking me out, man!

Great job on the processing here. Don't let the straight-out-of-camera purists get you down.

Haha! I just now noticed it. I had set up my quick makeshift studio on our plant potting table in the backyard.

They can't, otherwise I would have a big problem. Photoshopping was my hobby even before I discovered photography.

Never too much. I like it a lot.

Freakingly good!! That nail on the middle finger looks horribly cracked and adds a lot of feeling to the picture!

Not sure of the background story to this, but certainly makes for an interesting image, well done.

Great shot.

Thanks!

Background is short and simple. I've been going through some pretty rough times which I won't describe any further. Now things are starting to look nice and bright again, but I had to work extremely hard to get in this better place again.

Can you share what post-processing you did to the image? Be great to see the original image(s) and the process you took.

MADDSNIPER · 06-26-2013, 10:42 AM

I was wondering the same as ikershaw. great shot.
