Domenichino: Why you did that shit to my painting, Kara? It’s Santa Cecilia in there, not Cecilia Gimenez!
Kara: Your fault, all characters seem to be holding something invisible, on the original fresco. And the XS is out now, so…
Domenichino: XS? The iPhone? I wish I had one back then…
Kara: Yes. If the iPhone had been born in the baroque era, we would now have the iPhone 404. Can you imagine? The 404K iHologram screen, the mind-guided navigation or iMind, the amazing iScent olfactory apps, the iDream partnership with Netflix iDD (inductive dream division)?
Domenichino: The iCure, maybe?
Kara: Yes, with new programs to fight the hemorrhoids plague and finger callosities. Can you just imagine an iScent ready SL viewer app with hologram projection capability?
Domenichino: The iClaw magnetic back scratcher? XS, you’re soooo History already!
Kara: Speaking on History…On the other hand, Africa would be an immense Cobalt mine hole and Asia a huge Cadmium mountain…
Domenichino: Oh…cazzo…but then…
Kara: Do not worry, Domenichino. Look at Cupertino! They have 100 percent renewable energy and besides, there’s still the fabulous GiveBack trade in program that, as they announce: “can turn into something good for you and good for the planet.”
Domenichino: Mamma mia! So the 404 will renew itself into something good for the planet? ARTICHOKES?
Kara: Or Artic chokes…
Domenichino: But tell me…what did you use in that image, aside from the copy of my “St. Cecilia Distributing Alms”?
Kara: There’s a costume from *Goddess Apparel* called “Renaissance Jester Bright” and a pose from K&S called ~No problem~.

Takin' a group selfie.
----
This one was tricky. The idea was to get a POV shot of someone taking a group selfie. Of course, keeping with my theme, that meant it was a group of all me.
This was shot both with the front-facing camera on my iPhoneX and with a 50mm lens on my Nikon D750.
The group selfie was 7 images (clear backdrop and 6 clones) shot with the iPhone's front-facing selfie cam, while the iPhone itself was mounted on a tripod. I had two LED panels in softboxes to provide reasonable light (and to help minimize the shadows I'd need to create in post.)
I then positioned the Nikon on another tripod, wide aperture, focused on the phone, with the Nikon positioned roughly where the head of the clone holding the phone would be and looking toward the phone. I shot the phone with just the camera app's overlays on a black background, a second shot with my arm holding the phone, then removed the phone and tripod from the shot to shoot a backplate with bathrobe guy ("Existential Crisis Dad", per my daughter.)
Composited the selfie shots into a group selfie in Photoshop first. The final composite started with the arm, phone, and backdrop. Inserted the first composite "behind" the controls and overlays on the phone, mirrored to match what you'd see on the phone, et voila!
Basic corrections in Lightroom Classic; compositing in Adobe Photoshop 2021, with a bit of help from Topaz Mask AI.
