 Its a double exposure in camera. I shot the shadows of the blinds without me in it first. They were regular venitian blinds but there was a tree outside that gave all the other texture that you see. Next I just shot myself in the same spot without moving the camera and played with the overlay mode. Converted from raw, I used a shadows/highlight layer and sharpened before adding a level and 2 hue/saturation layers to try to get the red out of my face. Two curves, NI and save for web. The spot in the middle was on the wall and not sensor dust, I don't think I could have taken it out.
The lyrics are from the Song Burning Bridges

Creative, but something about the composition doesn't feel quite right. Wish the eye were a bit more prominent as well. 6.

I have no idea how this stacks up with Pink Floyd, but this photo is very captivating. As a viewer I'm drawn in and need to look around a while to figure out what else may lay hidden within. Only minor complaint from me is that I wish the eye was sharper. Overall, very well done. Good luck in the challenge.

I like this. Wish there was a little more color (for the Floyd sake) but definitely has the trippy aspect and fits the theme well.
