day 4 of the Feb 2008 SP and Overlay side challenges. It may be a bit too symmetrical but i had a version without only one of the things at the top and it seemed a bit off.

only one photo but 3 overlays, over 40 layers and ~2.5 hours editing.

You have an excellent series going. I can see these as a gallery thing. Very nice post stuff, very creative captures.

nice I like the centered composition of this.

I don't know, I think the symmetry works, like he's some apocalyptic leader sitting on his throne.

your works should be in an art gallery. the symmetry works great here.

I can't wait to look back over your entire collection of overlays. I think a slideshow (with music!) is in order.

Keep this up for 30 days and you got a Showing for a (big) gallery. I could see this on an Album cover. As always great work. I'm liking the story telling that you are doing and succeding at.

This one is CREEPY! Very cool, I am loving your editing, I think the centered composition works really well for this.

Nice work with the color and overlays. They do take time.

With respect to symmetry, I don't consider it to be a sin. Some pictures call for it. (This one, for example.) I regard the Rule of Thirds as a point of departure, not a law carved in stone. (Glad I could finally get that off my chest!)

WOW I bet you're the star of the SP thread! Excellent work showing your massive committment to these images, hope you can keep it up for a month!

I like the apocalyptic feel of this shot. I like the red tone and the peeling paint texture in the background makes it appear like he has devil wings, not sure if you intended that but it's pretty cool.

I love the deep rich tones and the symmetry of this image. You've managed to capture both mood and feeling in this shot. Very well done. The editing is top-notch.

Elvis, you're really coming into your own with this series. I can't say I enjoy looking at all of the images, but they definitely hit me and make me think. And I suspect that's your intent. However, this is one I do enjoy looking at. Well done!

Ummmmmmmmm YIKES!!!! This is really scary! It's not the processing or the pose, it is your eyes... they are nicely creepy!!!

It is symmetrical, and I like it. I love how the wall paper peeling looks like flags.

These are friggin awesome.

You're on a roll. Another great one. I like you centered on this picture - it works perfectly with the V imagery I see.
