There are definitely effects which look like images are stitched together here. Also, the shadows don't add up (nose shadow is crisp on finger). Then the DOF - the nose and eye are in focus, but the toner in the same plane is out of focus. I believe this may be a possible image in one frame using glass, but there are too many questions, and thus validation is definitely required.
This is still brilliant. And DQ really shouldn't matter; check this photographer
 imantas and specifically
That DQ didn't stop him from entering more and showing us all his fantastic photography.

Ouch.
Has originals of the other photos, but not this one? I say caught out and trying to avoid validation. The closed account also speaks plenty. Sad.

it's hard to imagine her right eye staying open through such a massive explosion of toner.
I too thought that was impossible!

| It looks like the face was printed first and then the colors were splashed on it. Good idea. A 7 from me |

| Exquisite timing. How did you keep that out of her eye? |

| I'm just wondering how many takes you would've had to do to get this right, and how much damage to her eyes did she succumb to. |

| I really like the idea and execution but you pushed the highlights in her eye a bit too far for my liking, unnaturally bright and distracting. I also wonder, the eyes instinctively close when something is "shot" in their direction... so how did she not flinch with powdery explosions on her face? The more I think about this last point the more the aqua looks pasted in and not occurring during the shoot. |

| This is so cool. I want to know when the challenge is over, how you did this? |

| Having the two explosions really makes this for me. My favorite in the challenge. |
