I didn't think it was you in the shot until I saw the larger OT from this shoot--nice one--too bad it didn't get into the 6s but ah well. It's still better than most of my shots, lol.

Okay, anyhoo, cool picture, and I'll ttyl, man.

Good sense of humor with this illusion.

To really make this pop, you would have to be a lot closer to the subject in effect filling more of the frame with it. You also would have to have a picture to cut out with a white balance to match the white balance of the surroundings. It's very apparent to me how you did it if ony from the very red skin tones of the subject.

Aloof, Aloft... great idea and it does make me wonder how you set it up (I guess it is that steep of a cliff face! now that I think about it, is there someone else hiden holding one of the legs of the chair :)
Anyhow, I wonder how it looks in black and white...somehow the 'generic' green foliage seems to take away from the magic of it all...
Very original and well done!

I bet that took some balancing skills.

I am curious on how you did this! Neat!

great idea. I think this would be stronger if you had cropped a little tighter to the person / stool

This looks like two different composties. The face is too red. Cool image.

too far from camera, doesn't quite work at this distance.

The person's face and hands are really red as if they don't belong to the rest of the body. Idea is good but the end result is rather lacking...wouldn't have tried this myself by the way so I don't know how hard this was to set up..

Very cool - & well done. I'd be interested to see how you did this. Although I think a closer shot might have been a little more effective.

First Impression: Subject is a bit small in the big picture.
Was I fooled? I'm not sure. I see him levitated above the chair, but what is a guy doing sitting in a chair in the trees in the first place?

Up there, nice color, good detail.

Interesting illusion. Lovely lighting in the forested area, however it appears harsh on the stool. I would have liked, if possible, to see the subject closer and in better focus.

great illusion, just wish you could have got a little closer to the subject so we could get a bit more detail in the face.
