Latest in a series of self portraits.

Very interesting self portrait. How did you achieve this?

Thanks for your comment. The original head shot is a reflection in my computer monitor captured about a year ago. It has been processed into several versions from straight to heavily manipulated. This highly textured image was produced a few weeks ago by compositing two versions of the image one of which was processed using the audio editor Audacity. I composited that version with a photograph of bubble trapped in a glass ball which I made last night.

Just experiments really. Probably could have done the whole thing using Midjourney in fifteen minutes but where is the fun in that?

Here is a B&W version of the image processed using a Nik custom preset.
