[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
An empty picture frame as a prop and the usual lighting setup of strobes and backlighting were the ingredients of this 'portrait' of Jung Mi.

Post work was relatively simple - copy the image to a new layer then use 'distort' tool in Photoshop to resize it within the frame each time.

Trickiest bit was where the thumb overlaps the frame.

Brilliant concept, brilliant pp work - deeply envious. Have seen similar ideas on TL before, but the fading-into-infinity aspect of this one is different from those I've seen - and it works very well indeed.

Kinda lost for words. Love it!

Very good sharp quality.

Hey Rew,

Great "Hall of Mirrors" effect. Inventive with good technique. I just find it a little disturbing that she has no head (or if she does, it's too small to see).

Great lighting to get texture out of those deep black clothes.

Top of the line stuff, as always.

skot

Really very well done Rew - I think this is the best example of this kind of pp I've seen on this site and indeed anywhere.. Seamless layering!!

Nice work
DAvid..

Hi Rew,

magnificent Idea.

Hi Rew,
Very clever use of this tool! The endless frame and without face is so well thought and artistically done!
Impeccable PP work. The image is clear with a good contrast with deep blue and, naturel wooden frame against the white BG.
My compliments! Annie

Splendid job Rew ! All is perfect in this photo , from the white BG to the PP in passing by the pose and clarity and....I agreee with Kilted , i may have seen something like this before , not often though but your own composition is perfect !
Congrats ,you have got some talent mate, i know you work hard and believe me it shows !
TFS,

Magistral foto con mucho grafísmo e idea genial...saludos P.D. el hecho de publicar personas de espaldas puede acarrear molestias en esas mismas personas, si, pero si la intención es nada más que realizar una interesante foto en la que esas personas no puedan ser identificadas, el hecho no es grave,,,hay que tener en cuenta que la gran mayoría de reporteros gráficos realizar fotos sin pedir permiso a las personas y no por ello son paparrazzi...y yo no tengo la oportunidad de tener modelos para experimentar el arte de la fotografía.

Hi Rew
In french we call it "composition en abîme" but this one is absolutly perfect with the decenterment on the right.Really different than what you show normally and really the same in the millimeter perfection of the composition and ppwork.Your signature.
Good evening

Haha...not being a fan of portraiture, you got my attention with this one:) Clever and fun, and definitely well executed. The plain white background keeps this simple and strong, creating crisp visual impact and contrasts that work well with the amusing frame treatment. Now, how can I get my hands to look that smooth?:))

Now this is an excellent piece of pp work here Rew! Really seemless! HA! I am sitting here staring at it, trying to figure out in my head how much time this takes to do! Amazing work, I'm impressed!

hello Pew
beautiful thought and fine work,very good result and output!
TFS thanks for sharing
Nasos

very nice redundant frames and useful notes, tfs n tyvm.

i missed this endless series of mirrors
it deserves the 2 last points for the 100
i wrote mirrors as it is like the endless reflections when one is between two mirrors
the overlapping thumb adds to the composition
i like the fact that the angle of rotation of the frame is tilting each time when looking to the vanishing point, it really seems endless
sorry, i feel that my english isn't very good this morning

Hi Rew,

This looks great!! The pose of the model (perfect placed hands) and I realy like the purple colour with the brown colour of the frame. The PP work is very good!
Great job!

Hi Rew
Excellent idea and well taken, great pp work indeed
Just I prefer you put her face within 4 frames (the repeatation stops after 4 steps)...
Thank you, nice shot

So very clever - you say it was relatively simple - but I say not for me.
Sharp and clear all over. And the 3 colours - black, white and brown show up so well
Bravo!

Hi Rew, A clever creation, and even without the lady's face the result is spectacular. It is suitable for an advertisement in a fashion magazine. TFS. Murray.

VERY cool idea Rew, I am most impressed. Such an intriguing and original image. Looks flawless from where I'm sitting, clever thinking.

Hi Rew
Its been a while i've seen ur gallery :)
Jung Mai in ur another pretty model and i am sure u've enjoyed shooting session much more as we all gather ideas and implement them.

I love such work, just imagine if u had to do this without using software, i mean inn-camera :)
Have a look at this one

The use of white backdrop and prominent colors are eye catching but my personal opinion is that the "RED" color fascinates ur eye much more then any other color :)

TFS
