Hallucinations - Photoshop Contest [15 entries]

Winning entry, with a score of:

63%

Contest goal:

It is said that lack of sleep can cause hallucinations. Show us how reality would look like to somebody who has gone without sleep for a long time and who is suffering from those hallucinations. Your task is to take an ordinary photo and by using your photo manipulation skills transform it into something weird, seen through the eyes of the person hallucinating. Good luck and be creative!

Required level: 5+ or higher.
Status: finished. Check out the winners below!

Suggested by: HeinrichB

SOLARIS: I know this condition pretty good :-/ question, "..take an ordinary photo ...transform it into" sounds like only one source Image should be used. Is that correct? ( 5 years and 3418 days ago )

HeinrichB: What I had in mind is that the main source image i.e your "background" be realistic like the road while driving your car or a classroom or whatever and then you could use other source images to create the hallucinations. Take for example a picture of a book you are studying but you are so sleep deprived that the letters are dancing across the page or something to that effect. Anyway that's the kind of thing I had in mind when I suggested the contest but I guess its up to the mods

gigi: I am not at a high enough level for this contest but here are a couple of hallucinations I had when I was sick, on pain meds, and refused to sleep for about a week: wiggly worms on the window but they were clear so only I could see them. Knew the FBI would come through the TV to get me if I got well, Just some ideas

erikuri says:

Hey... are you trying to destroy my reputation???? I'll process you for moral injury!!!
Kidding! You know I'd never say such things to anyone even the work was very bad. And you... you are in my heart, my friend...
But prepare the cushion, I'll kick your butt!!!

Widiar says:

Yeah.. a bad chop but a good fun. Very accurate commenting especially ,-) Thx for the humor moment of the day.

artist3001 says:

Amazing! The perspective and light sources are perfect...I adore how you have captured the mood and using shadows to accent the whole wonderful effect ....high votes from me author!

SOLARIS says:

ha ha ha, I would love to have that dodge& burn knowledge you have. I also like your thump down repu. hilarius entry. lmao. In fact, artists who have made the greatest images someday step back to childdrawings at least. You captured all, sun, people flowers. Only critic, ... your should work on your shadows

gigi says:

Absolutely the funniest thing I've seen here. Thanks so much!

LEEBAOREN says:

Congrats

RichieMB says:

Congrats for 3rd place

HeinrichB says:

Congratulations!

artgirl1935 says:

Knew you had a winner here! Congrats!

erikuri says:

Congrats! Don't forget me...

nasirkhan says:

Congrats!. Great humour

sophia says:

Congrats!

Widiar says:

Sorry for saying this mate, but I don't think this work deserved the 3rd place. All praise to your wicked humour (loved the SBS too), but I find this kind of voting to be very unfair for the ppl who did a lot of work on this contest too. I hope you don't take bad feelings for me, I truly like your other chops... just wanted everyone to know how I feel, just to be honest. I never leave comments after vote results usually.

SOLARIS says:

sometimes the idea goes over skills. I think itÂ´s fair. congrats Geexman

Widiar says:

I raised this issue on the forum, hopefully people will discuss it further there. I know some people will agree and many will attack me or disagree. In no way I wish to attack Geexman nor discredit his very good skills, as the voters are here to 'blame' .. if there is something to blame. I'm very much ok, if Geexman wishes to remove my comments as being insulting, which I hope it is not..
