Default A Self Portrait Compilation
Before
Photobucket


After

Photobucket


This is a self-portrait I took. I made the background black in photoshop and then added the photos. Making each of them in the "lighten" layer mode. I also saturated the colors and then darkened the blacks in the levels. Lastly I added just a small amount of blur. Tadaaahhhh

Very nice merge. I like that you managed to get all the pics to have a very similar look. I hate trying to do self portraits - props to you! Good job.
