[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
3 pictures cloned together. BG was a digital painting in Photoshop. Selfportrait from earlier this year, Crow from a recent outing on Henderson Lake.
Each picture, particularly the BG, went through many stages of post processing before merging. Cloning with the clone brush and a Wacom stylus, corrections done with the history brush. The border had been added already to the original abstract picture I used for the BG.
Just felt like playing around.

Hello Otto,
A lovely creation!
I particular I like the crow, hehehe, looks just like the ones who drop by my place in the morning to get dry bread...
Pleasant composition with attractive colours!
Greetings,
Pablo -

Hi Otto,
A very special self portrait. Cristal clear. So you also have a relation with a crow! :-)

Superb artwork Otto. Good colour and fine detail. Very intense look you have on your face too, deep in thought. Well done and TFS,
David

Many thanks for your comment on ‘Cataract Floods I’

Am i a fox? No i can ask the question as i see that photo at the same moment i eat a piece of cheese... Old... tastful... with character... Sorry bird! I'm Werewolf... Not a fox... But believe me... No chance you have back your cheese. And don't think to hurt that Mystic nose in revenge!
It's cool montage. You look close but i'm sure it's not the case. Crow is a very wise bird. Te rare times i try to follow some... They often see you from away :)
I like that! Colorful and suggest introspection somewere in the way to look!

You are fixin to lose a nose to that black crow there! HAHA! Nice pp work Otto! Very Mystical and only you can pull it off! The master of Mystical!

Should play around more. Excellent PP work.
Seems you are having a conversation with the crow and he does all the talking :-).

Your face in the shape of the moon
The raven as companion
This all in combination with the used colours gives the impression of dark art
Very well done Otto
