Listen, strange women lyin’ in ponds distributin’ swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
You’re traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That’s the signpost up ahead— your next stop, the Twilight Zone!
love your site.. hate the photos you post LOL.. this is beyond stupid, creepy and I’d say poorly done but I can’t think of a way it could or would want to be done at all, let alone well!
The landscape is lovely , a very nicely done stock shot. The lady’s face, looking at the softness/b&w and huge hair, looks like it was scanned in from a photo dating back a few decades.
Then, oh gawd help us, a fauxtog found that stock shot – AND the Warp tool in PS – and after scanning in the pic and selecting only her face, proceeded to warp it to *match* the planes of the water’s surface….*groan*
There is not a word in the English language that can adequately express the awfulness of this combination copyright infringement/horrible cut-and-past monstrosity.
My thoughts exactly…. if someone did this to one of my photographs there would be a DMCA notice filed immediately with legal action prepared 27 hours later.

It was actually a decent image before the creativity was applied.
Rob
Given the “creativity” applied here, I’d be willing to bet that the background was probably swiped from a Google image search. And tineye pretty much confirms my suspicions: http://www.tineye.com/search/c07c55fc4cea021172efadf40ccbfce8571b8709/

A “creative” thief…. we really do need more of those……. not!

😮

hmm ok this is just an awful idea done really badly :s
borss
The funny thing is, that the original landscape pic. would be kinda cool without the face:D

It came from beneath the sea http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048215/

What the HECK?!?
Did this poor woman drown in the pond & the fauxtog is trying to memorialize her spirit in that water?
Andreana
HAHAHAHA. never mind the selection job around the head… the idea alone is terrifying.

wow….

They even failed to crop her head properly. Or is that supposed to be an outer glow? 😐
RD
Considering half of her chin is missing, I’m guessing it’s a bad crop.

Nice autumn scene, very atmospheric…… WHY?
Face is so fuzzy it’s not identifiable, it’s not attractive. It’s weird.
EW
I have seen that pond image before, maybe from deviant art. They ripped a good photo and added a face?WTF.
BurninBiomass
I get it, its Emily Pond… where it the Tardis?
BurninBiomass
is.. where is the Tardis. *sigh*
Kookie
It’s Amy Pond. The Doctor is coming to rescue her soon. He just have to leave her there for a few days.
BurninBiomass
Yes! thats it, Amy. Where did I get Emily from? I’m just useless today.
Kookie
Lol it’s a common mistake =) Emily sounds like Amy
Blacklight Imaging
I’d bet the fauxtog didn’t actually take either of the two pictures.

I have a feeling the original picture was taken by someone else and this was just bad photoshopping, just a guess based on the taste of the edit.

Why does this remind me of Teddy Kennedy?
Roxanne
What the actual fuck?
Angela MacIsaac (@that_angela)
Wow … so I’ll just steal this totally awesome photo from a real photographer and place this face on it.
What in hell kind of thought process? Jesus Jumpin’ on a Pogostick Christ.
robert
That’s not a face.
It’s an oil spillage in an otherwise lovely scene. This photo was taken, probably because the oil pattern resembled a face.

omg was she drowned in the lake?
murderator
Is it me, or does the Lady of the Lake look sort of like John Travolta?
Gal with a Camera
Nice hairdo.
spike
Who’s the watery tart…er..moistened bint… um… I mean to say, who’s the unfortunate lady that has had her face associated with this steaming heap.
Janet
The homicidal undertones are freaky! Is the fauxtog sending a message to investigators that the lake is where he dumped the body?!
Snappy
Photog indeed ripped this off, and then ruined it with photoshop.
justme
Isn’t this one of the signs of the apocalypse?
Bobotron
This looks familiar…

It looks like Professor Umbridge drowned in the the Black Lake .
