Earlier this year I attended a cosplay event in Stockton, California. Cosplay is short for costume play. The term コスプレ (kosupure) was coined in Japan in 1984. Cosplaying as a hobby started to get popular in the 1990s, and is now a significant aspect of popular culture in Japan and other parts of East Asia, as well as in the Western world. The event also featured movie stars and movie props. My friend here faces H.R. Gyger's alien monster head on.
I processed a balanced, a paintery, and a realistic HDR photos from a RAW exposure, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
