 another derivative work...

had a plastic tarp, and started with this generally in mind



and I think this was kicking around upstairs somewhere too



... and this is what happened.

single light source from lower right
lots of Topaz Adjust and other adjustment layers

Dunno if this is too weird (generally) or too sharp (for this challenge). I think I'll get a lot of low votes if people don't read the human figure as being the subject, since the plastic wrap is in relatively sharp focus.

Eerie and evocative. Creates a very visceral (& disturbed) reaction. Superb stuff.
