wow good job very interesting TFS keep up the good work

What a coincidence. I was just looking at fotofreaks image Beauty Has Its Price. Its her face covered in mint mud, and now I saw your face covered in mud.

I like what you did in this experiment. The use of two slides overlaying each other, then shooting the result. Very creative and imaginative work. Well done. The face paint has given a great contrasting background for the cracks in the mud.

Morbid and delightful, John! This photo is really creepy, and so I love it and find it engages my interest for a long time. Composition is also very good in terms of space used and where. Fun stuff!

I'm really impress about this work and specially the very clever technique you have used. The result is really great and the B&W conversion works very well on this composition.
Well done.
