Self Portrait

Just in case you wanted to see my final self portrait:


It's actually four pictures put together in Photoshop, mostly using masks. I didn't alter or destroy any of the actual pixels.

Photo #1: Me on the right, you know the Photographer...

Photo #2: The me on the left, model extraordinaire...NOT :)

Photo #3: The me in the middle, the master Mac user/editor/writer...

Photo #4: The me on the right's shadow [when I took that picture, the sun went behind a cloud so my shadow disappeared. It looked unnatural without it, so I went out and took a shadow photo around the same time on another day to try and recreate it]... Does it look realistic? Hopefully you didn't notice. I made it a little lighter than the others, because I didn't want it to distract from the lovely me-in-the-middle...

Wow Sarah!!! It looks so awesome! I love it!!! and the shadow is not distracting, and I would have never noticed, it all looks real, like you have a twin sitting there ;)

This picture is so bomb! You did a great job! The shadow added on makes it look a lot better. I love it!

I love it! Each picture (including the added in shadow) makes it a great montage. I really like the picture of you as the photographer.
