_____One of my earliest successful photomanipulations, and a fantastic accidental lesson in the technique. I discovered that when two objects share a light-source and grain-pattern, they are shockingly easy to super-impose. The only change made to this image since 2001 was a badly-needed levels adjustment (made the darks darker, the lights lighter, and the colors more colorful) and a bit of smart-blur to take care of the excessive grain caused by the pre-megapixel era digital camera it was taken with. This image represents the expression of an early and enduring fascination with strangeness.
