Out of place, maybe - but not lost. On holiday in Wales, these travelers set off with their Welsh-Klingon guidebook, confidant that finding the Welsh town with the very long name would be easy. I heard the Welsh town's name pronouced here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Llanfairpwllgwyngyll (see li...

Image of 'Charlotte' is in the sbs. A couple of the shapes (pointing hand and atom symbol) come with Photoshop. Some of the decorative shapes are actually dingbat fonts that I found at DaFont, they are Free Ribbons and Soft Ornaments.

A Trek fan since the beginning, this is the first thing that came to mind. "Amok Time" is the second season premier episode of Star Trek: The Original Series...broadcast on September 15, 1967... written by science fiction author Theodore Sturgeon... The episode features First Officer S...

Airstrip 5, clear to taxi. I've been a scifi fan for years, and am especially intrigued by the thought of life on Mars, as told by Ray Bradbury in his Martian Chronicles. I foresee space travel to the red planet, perhaps in our own future.
1950s advertising, but with my 'spin' on it. The piggy shape is actually a font, found at DaFont, called Farm and Wild Animals (opacity lowered, set on Multiply). Used some inner shadow on the large text top and bottom. Burned the red outer stroke in some places. EDITED, per the mods.
From Wiki: "Gentlemen began to wear the top hat at the end of the 18th century... and developed from a fashion into a symbol of urban respectability... The top hat is sometimes associated with the upper class, becoming a target for satirists and social critics. It was particularly used as ...

or, He Ain't Heavy, He's My (Frat) Brother - new frat house mascot. Basic ps techniques, some layer styles, shadow/painting, crest shape from ps, shown in sbs.
I chose one of the more difficult images just for the challenge. Only the not-so obvious steps are in the sbs, the rest is just painting, masking, basic ps techniques. The leaves that are behind the girl in this final image are the ones from the background image. After the girl's hair was extracted,...

Couldn't resist this one. Extracted the sky and added a gradient. Lowered lightning on road, cat and sign. Painted glows, warped streaks, motion blur.
Who amongst us has done this - lookin' at naughty stuff when we should be working?! Oh, the shame... but hey, the wife and kids were at the park! [Workspace is a personal photo, shown in sbs.]

In Aztec mythology, Xiuhtecuhtli [she-wah-tay-KWAH-tlee] ("Turquoise Lord" or "Lord of Fire"), was the god of fire, day and heat. He was the lord of volcanoes, the personification of life after death, warmth in cold (fire), light in darkness and food during famine. I immediate...
Yes, Virginia, there is such a thing. You may have heard them called 'wormholes', but it indeed is possible to travel through time. In this rare photo, taken from another galaxy cruiser, you see a Victorian steam-sub go through such a "portal", and emerge in the far distant future in a veh...
A Jethro Tull fan from 'way back', I don't recall this album. Interesting textures to try to replicate.

Quickly, the portal is visibile now. Go back in time with me, but hurry, I'm already beginning to vapourize... Photo of woman is one that I took at Disney World. Saturation lowered on background and woman. Flamingo head used for umbrella handle, with plastic filter. "Flood" added to old...

Remember those? Well, they were real, and usually on a mission - to find toast, their whole reason for being! This is a sleek Italian search vessel, and it looks like a successful mission - the planet is loaded with toast and even has a lake of butter. Basic photoshop - support lines to 'gondola'...

Please see sbs - tomato photo is from my own fall garden last year. Background made with texture, noise & blur for countertop with perspective, color and inner glow for back 'wall'.
The Trojan Horse is a tale from the Trojan War, as told in Virgil's Latin epic poem The Aeneid, also by Dionysius, Apollodorus and Quintus of Smyrna. The events in this story from the Bronze Age took place after Homer's Iliad, and before his Odyssey. It was the stratagem that allowed the Greeks fina...

An image was used that I had created awhile ago and did not enter. Two personal photos (shown in sbs), and the planets and background were created with just photoshop. The sketch techniques give it an interesting effect.

It was so hearbreaking to treat "my guys" like this, but it gives us a glimpse into their future. This group, Il Divo, together for about 6 or 7 years now, was the vision of Simon Cowell (yes, that Simon Cowell). They are from 4 countries, 3 with an operatic background, the 4th with more o...
