Pieces of Me

Yesterday I posted a picture called Pieces of Me for the Sunday Selfie Project.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments.

Some of you wondered how it was done and actually Photoshop only played a small role in it to extend the canvas. The first picture is the original self portrait after editing in Lightroom. I then printed that on our new printer (finally got rid of that all too thirsty ink blobber). Then I arranged the original Anker building blocks in an interesting pattern and cut the print in to 2,5 cm wide stripes so they matched the areas of the blocks.
I then rephotographed the whole arrangement again, lighting it from the same side as the original portrait, so the shadows of the two pictures matched.
Final adjustments in Photoshop and toning in Lightroom.
