Jerry Uelsmann and Maggie Taylor have made distinguished careers out of manipulating images: he's an old-school darkroom guy, while she's embraced the computer. For this challenge, they provided ten images for you to remix into an original composition.
I fused in a few of the elements in a glass sphere

This animated gif of an image of an African girl who has haunted my work for the past 10 years with Robin's egg.

All pictures were used. I started this at 10:30pm. Once I thought of the statue head embedded in a tree, it was all about being watched. But the doorway was a way out... or is it?

heard about this contest earlier today and decided to wing it about 2 hrs before the end mark. haven't played around with photo manipulation in a while and thought i'd give it a go again. attempted to use something from each photo but did not succeed. did not want it to look too cluttered. i do like the variety within the butterflies.

This is my CS4 rendition of Sondheim's "Into the Woods" after listening to Jonathan Schwartz this afternoon on NYC.

I wish I could give a clever explanation of what I did here, but I really don't have one: I played around with some of the supplied images, never came up with anything I really liked, then I got an idea and this is pretty much what that idea was.
Ain't computers great?!

I notice the other images submitted. And want to do something different. Also I was lazy and didn't want to cut the images out. But as you see it was not the easy way out. The idea of a art gallery just came to mind. And just went from there. Also I just gave up until the last minute. So this is the end product. I can go back and tweak some more. But the clock has got the best of me...

Two beings are connected by a crow. Maybe there is a time warp or perhaps these body-less beings are just talking heads!
Patti
I used pieces of all images except the one titled path. For this, I stayed with the sepia tones of the man with the bowler only leaving a small touch of blue from the sky to remain.

While making this image I was thinking about the history of photography and attempted to make something that looked like a daguerreotype or ambrotype with present day technology.

The skeletal bird is holding the egg of the man and then it evolves from there. I wanted to make the bird a bit more active and interesting by opening the mouth and elongating the beak. This is Mount Rushmore meets Alfred Hitchcock.

I often use the process of composting images with a combination of projections and editing in Photoshop. I'm interested in how physical light interacts with space and how it can be manipulated. I hope to create an abstraction of something that I'm actually seeing in the real world.
