Here's a shot of me in my lab during some free time, powering up my backpack equipment for some traveling. I've devised a portal through which I can travel to other times in order to get some flying time in different aircraft. OK, the truth: this is a composite of two photographs of me taken by...

Dumpy Dan

Formerly the Miami Dolphins' star quarterback, now he's an 'armchair quarterback'! And never too far from his favorite things: football and SNACKS! I heard that he was rude to his fans, who only wanted to say hi and maybe get his autograph, so he deserves this! Warp, liquify, patch, reverse bk...

Bass-o-Matic

Brought to you by POPular demand, the Bass-o-Matic is a real time-saver! Inspired by the food channel and an old Saturday Night Live skit with Dan Akroyd, a video is included in source 5.

We WILL be able to see this in our lifetime! Finally, our government has gotten smart and legalizes the cultivation, sale, marketing and multi-usage of a PLANT! It will be taxed to the hilt, but those taxes will fund our schools, food and shelter for all who need it, it will repair our infrastructur...

Hello, Michelle.

In a parallel universe, far, far away..., Barack is HAL and Michelle is the astronaut..... with reference to the 1968 hit scifi movie '2001: A Space Odyssesy'. Lots of masking, but fairly basic techniques - patch, clone, some layer effects.

Acme Garbage, 2412

An image was used that I had created awhile ago and did not enter. Two personal photos (shown in sbs), and the planets and background were created with just photoshop. The sketch techniques give it an interesting effect.

Trojan Duck, 1893

The Trojan Horse is a tale from the Trojan War, as told in Virgil's Latin epic poem The Aeneid, also by Dionysius, Apollodorus and Quintus of Smyrna. The events in this story from the Bronze Age took place after Homer's Iliad, and before his Odyssey. It was the stratagem that allowed the Greeks fina...

Flying Toaster

Remember those? Well, they were real, and usually on a mission - to find toast, their whole reason for being! This is a sleek Italian search vessel, and it looks like a successful mission - the planet is loaded with toast and even has a lake of butter. Basic photoshop - support lines to 'gondola'...

Quickly, the portal is visibile now. Go back in time with me, but hurry, I'm already beginning to vapourize... Photo of woman is one that I took at Disney World. Saturation lowered on background and woman. Flamingo head used for umbrella handle, with plastic filter. "Flood" added to old...

Spirit of the Fire God

In Aztec mythology, Xiuhtecuhtli [she-wah-tay-KWAH-tlee] ("Turquoise Lord" or "Lord of Fire"), was the god of fire, day and heat. He was the lord of volcanoes, the personification of life after death, warmth in cold (fire), light in darkness and food during famine. I immediate...

Goldilocks & the Gremlins

I chose one of the more difficult images just for the challenge. Only the not-so obvious steps are in the sbs, the rest is just painting, masking, basic ps techniques. The leaves that are behind the girl in this final image are the ones from the background image. After the girl's hair was extracted,...

Image of 'Charlotte' is in the sbs. A couple of the shapes (pointing hand and atom symbol) come with Photoshop. Some of the decorative shapes are actually dingbat fonts that I found at DaFont, they are Free Ribbons and Soft Ornaments.

Klingons in Wales!

Out of place, maybe - but not lost. On holiday in Wales, these travelers set off with their Welsh-Klingon guidebook, confidant that finding the Welsh town with the very long name would be easy.
