 Just a composition glued together in photoshop with clipping masks and stuff. Only took me an hour to do from shooting to entering :-)

Oh yeah and this is my Sigma 15-30 wide angle lense open at it's fullest.... fine lens it is too!

Umm, and I was not drunk after this shoot! That was only one and the same bottle of beer and the wine. Well I did drink it all, but it was only half full to start with anyway :-)I stayed SOBER!

I always knew you would be one for cloning. I mean if they can clone sheep like Dolly, you would of course want to be involved ;)

well, i'm throughly jealous that your shot did so much better than mine. i guess there aren't enough tennis fans on dpc. :)

congratulations on a great finish and a great shot.

your partner in cloning,
rob

Very well done, I can only discern 1 cut and paste. I scored this the highest of the clone entries.

very cool effect, seems to be very well executed too. Would be nice to know that your drinking buddies were always going to drink at the same pace as you!

Excellent stuff! I reckon you're gonna really have fun with yourself. How did you manage to find 3 other people who look identical to you just to pose for this shot though? That's amazing in itself. Perhaps they're your 3 quad brothers... [10]

This photo is just CRAZY. I would really like to know how you did this. I like the way three of you are drinking Beer and the other one is drinking wine. Hell I like it all the way around. (10)

Very crisp, clear and convincing! Are you sure you don\'t have clones walking around? You've got a solid 10 from me. Everything about the photo is exceptional. I like the way you are interacting with yourself LOL! I can feel the party mood and to think you did it all alone. You must be one fun personality! Best to you!

The title really fits the shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

nicely done. the only part that looks out of place is the leg of the leftmost version of you.

i'm not exactly sure if the "playing with yourself" reference was tongue-in-cheek or not, but i enjoyed it.

congrats! you stole my idea!
