As you can surmize this is a back projection. I wanted full integration between background and foreground. To have the image minus the hand in the back makes for a cleaner image, but then the illusion effect is reduced.

The hand was photographed and then ps was used to create the the effect of the projection. The back layer supports the hand, the middle layer combines two layers into one, that is, the subject and the prism light fan. These layers comprise the background or the prejected image. The foreground angle of the prism was sought to pick up the reflection. No special processing was used with the in camera image except to match tonal values.

Well done! Good illusion of projection, interesting subject, and master trickery! One of the best of the challenge. Bumping up.

Unique idea put together well in the photograph. Gives the viewer plenty to relate to and think about even if they are not into rock and rol music. Composed well.

The area around the bealtline of the guitarist is slightly overexposed and should be darken just a little bit.

Nice idea that should be favored by reviewers.

I can appreciate the shot and the mechanics behind it. I just didn't like it. Not sure why. I think if you had left the second hand out of the shot it would have been better.

I'm guessing double exposure. Picture is good, wish it was rotated a little clockwise, as the lean bothers me. Bumping up a point for the work that went into thinking this photo out, but not for the double exposure (sorry just personal preference).

Very cool image. The only thing I wish is that I could see the top of the wrist a little more---which may be a result of my monitor. Anyway, great job.

Creative idea. The frame is a bit cluttered for me, BUT, that is one neat rocker!!! Love him. Points for trying something different.
