Yes
A result of owning a cat and a compost bin. Cat does the capture, compost bin does the post processing....

Stacked using CombineZP.
Took this a fair while ago, but I do like it.
If I remember correctly it used to be a blackbird.

:LOL:

I like that image. Did you do the reflection in PP or at the time of shoot? Id be tempted to move the skull to the right of the frame maybe.
 
Nice work maybe a tad brighter for my tastes, did you use perspex with black paper under, have had some good results with that.
 
nice pic, something you dont see often photographed


nice reflection and detail
 
It was a glass chopping board with black paper underneath for the reflection.

Combine ZP (the last letter changes with each release) is a freeware program you can get it from here
 
Nice shot, Im like Steve could be a bit brighter for me also, not sure why you would need a stacked shot for this type of shot, I do like the lighting (y)

I use black perspex, which is highly reflective on both sides. The problem with glass mirrors or clear perspex/glass with black paper under, is that you get a ghosting effect due to the thickness of the glass/plastic. With the perspex I use you get the reflection off the actual top surface. You can get it here (500mmx500mm is the smallest size you can get away with. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Sheet-Plastics-Suppliers/3mm-Gloss-Black-Acrylic-Sheet-/_i.html?_fsub=1758515017

here's an example of what it can do ... http://www.robmarshall.net/Images/Home-Alone/i-nWD9QN3/1/X2/clarinet-X2.jpg
