This photo is hot! Share it!

This study was part of my thesis project about memory and the nature of family snapshots. I created this image by projecting an old slide from my childhood onto my sister's body. The image projected on her neck is her as a baby. Absolutely no photoshop used.

Wow. I was definitely thinking photoshop was used, until I made it bigger and just read your caption. Glad I did. I really respect that you did this without photoshop. Amazing!
