Happy Halloween!
PS work cloning my selfportrait with the horns of a bighorn sheep from a Calgary Zoo visit this spring. More cloning to drag down hair, then directional light effect.
Booooooooooooo
here is a view of my model, and here of my self portrait on which this work is based on. I might do some more work on this later on. The possibilities are endless.
Check a different version with additional cloning in the background here on my Fine Art In America site(there are more digital works on that site also).

Hi Otto,
WOW your PP work is impressive.. I love the idea and how you Pppd the 2 images... very cool for Halloween.... Enjoy

Tricia

Lol! Great montage... But i would not laugh. You are perhaps a victim of the beast! it make me curious feeling to see that you look natural but you understand this mean how it's well done! Posture is perfect!

Wow! Whatta great composition, Otto! I like it a lot! Great lighting and shadows on the images. The collage is almost flawless! The different hairs seem to be of the same color. The expression is appropriate.
TFS,
Freddie :)

SuperClone! Nice work. I totally expected as much after having seen some of your other projects on the web. Very cool there eh?
Bob
