Mixed Manipulations 1 - Photoshop Contest [23 entries]

In this special contest, you can upload any image manipulation that you created or want to create and that doesn't fit in any of the other active photoshop contest. What you create is based only on personal imagination, creativity and photo-manipulation techniques. Obviously, this contest won't be 100% anonymous, just don't mention your name, or add any special signs on your image that reveal your name.

It can be anything you like and are proud of (even old PST entries), as long as it respects the Pxleyes rules & guidelines and you haven't submitted it before on pxleyes. Voting will be more difficult here, but like in any other contest, the winner will be determined by voting... Wow-factor will play a bigger role here, but it's important to check out the SBS guide and sources before placing your vote... That way you can be determine if the Wow-effect is achieved by a good source, or by good technique.

To prove the authenticity of your work, your entry must have a step by step guide with at least 1 intermediate step + all sources must be mentioned. Maximum 2 entries.

Good luck!

"The Last Song I'm Wasting On You" by Evanescence

"Sparkling grey,
They're my own veins.
Any more than a whisper,
Any sudden movement of my heart.
And I know, I know I'll have to watch them pass away

Just get through this day

Give up your way, you could be anything,
Give up my way, and lose myself, not today
That's too much guilt to pay

Sickened in the sun
You dare tell me you love me
But you held me down and screamed you wanted me to die
Honey you know, you know I'd never hurt you that way

You're just so pretty in your pain

Give up my way, and I could be anything
I'll make my own way
Without your senseless hate... hate... hate... hate.

So run, run, run
And hate me, if it feels good.
I can't hear your screams anymore

You lied to me
But I'm older now
And I'm not buying baby

Demanding my response
Don't bother breaking the door down
I found my way out

And you'll never hurt me again. "

This piece isn't meant to be offensive. A while back, pxl held an anorexia contest, which i found to be incredibly underappreciated. There were so many avenues and possibilities around that contest. I decided to take that "theme" and add my personal touch to it. This is meant for all the SURVIVORS of anorexia. and the words of the song i chose seem to describe the feeling i was trying to portray with my image.

Comments are appreciated, however, i would appreciate constructive thoughts, not destructive opinions on the actual disease, as it is not consequential to the outcome of this piece.

**edit-fixed "blurred" flowers and brought girl forward a bit..hope its better** (1 year and 236 days ago)
