headless plant girlby ~revolution-is-sexy

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Surreal

Mama had a baby
and her head popped off.

Damn we were demented little kids.

Special thanks to my (insert positive adjective here) model, Korin.

Thank you! I don't often do edits, but I do think this one turned out well.

LINES!

More importantly: rectangles.

I love the shot of the seed head, but it feels a little disjointed to me. What is interesting is the reaction of unease it promotes. I find myself wondering if I'd feel differently if the cut off point was higher up: if the seed head just replaced her head. There's something unnerving about it replacing part of her upper body as well. It looks like a window onto her.

Well, the original photograph is cut off at that point, it's not a clever edit, so I can't move the cut off point any higher. I really like each picture on their own, and I want to practice my digital editing skills, so I made this. I wonder if I should've just posted them each seperately?

~ezs Jun 5, 2007

I really liked the idea of this, I think it's just the composition which didn't sit right. Perhaps you could trim to the seed head (still inside a rectangle the same width as the underlying photo), then place that directly over the model's head. I think it's the disjunct between the stalk and where you expect the neck to be that makes me queasy.

~revolution-is-sexy Jun 5, 2007

Yeah, I see what you mean. I wondered if that was going to be an issue. Is the queasiness problematic?

~ezs Jun 6, 2007

It's not problematic, as such. It just feels a bit arbitrary, as if a choice was forced on you, rather than you making it deliberately. It's a difficult one; could just be me.

So cool!

The images merge together really well :]

Kinda creepy but VERY nice!
