Ice Girl
This image started as a portrait of my daughter. I Used Photoshop’s chrome filter and layer blend mode effects to get the ice look.
In fact, the image in the lower layer was from a shot of Sanibel Beach, Florida, which explains the subtle turquoise and blue tones. The chrome filter always works best in layer blend mode as it’s a monochrome filter (at least in my medieval version of PS it was) and needs color contrasts to make it look convincing. I tried several base images before finding the one that worked best.
The bubbles in the leg were from an old negative I found of a macro of a fizzy drink I did yonks ago, and the drips were one of the splash droplets from my image Big Fishing that I cloned.
For the wet stain under the foot I just selected an area and decreased the level.
Flames were from a log fire in Portugal, icicles on the head from a Kodak Instamatic shot taken some time in the 80's.
All elements, except for icicles and including the original portrait, shot with a Canon EOS 100 (with various lenses) on Fuji Reala 100 ISO print film. Scanned to digital on a Canon FS 2710 film scanner.
