The Mountain

It is an invention of men, not mountains, to compete for the sky.

A fun experimental shoot lit with home depot spot lights fixed to furniture by clamps in my loft.Hence the abundance of warmth in the photo. My tripod for the evening was a New Balance shoe box; surprisingly useful.I snatched the cloud of a sky in Spain and painted in the mountains int he background from a photo of the Olympics in Washington. I used 3 differnet texture overlays to bring a painterly feel to the finished product.

Thanks Chris!

Took me a while to see what I was looking at, nice photo

Thank you Jordan!

I've looked at this photo a dozen times, and I still think it's a lower-half bodyscape whenever I see the thumbnail. I love the double visual. Very cool.
