There's a bit of an illusion here. I took a vintage slide photograph of Kate, a friend who worked her way through university by posing for artists, and displayed it on a computer monitor. I then placed a glass of Champagne (in this case, Pierre Peters) in front of the screen and took a picture that merges model and primary subject. Kate's picture, incidentally, was taken on Kodachrome 64 slide film, using an Agfa range finder 35mm camera. The compilation was taken with a Canon EOS5D.

i like this.
looks like the day after.
using champagne not beer or other cheap alcohol gives to think that alcoholism can be found at people wich have money and dont have money. hope your understand my bad english. anyway NICE DONE!

Amazing effect! Well done!

Great concept and execution.

What a very cool mix of classic and digital photography.

You had me fooled. Very clever.

Thanks everyone. Both photoshoots were fun.

this could be an ad for either champagne or naked women..works with both!

ncie one

I have a particular fondness for both, often at the same time.

Thomas told me that this photo was at the top of the "awesome" list last week. Thanks, everyone! I regret that I have no more naked ladies to share.

That is truly an interesting concept of creating, merging, and redefining photography. It blends new with old in a way I haven't seen and admire. Fantastic idea!
