What do you think – is this an oil painting or a photograph of some girl?

Well, the image may look like a painting at first glance but you’ll very surprised to know that its a photograph of a real woman captured with Canon EOS 50D.
University of Hawaii professor Peter Kun Frary was walking past a cosmetic store where saw a model in full body paint posing against a set. That’s where he shot these awesome pictures using his Canon DSLR.
The picture is served to you straight from the digital camera without any kind of manipulation in Photoshop.

nope, it’s not “straight from camera” ! or might have gone thru some resizing in Adobe Photoshop CS3 Macintosh link

Hmmm, not sure about straight from the camera but great effect nevertheless. I would love to see a tutorial about how it is done.

Great ! Wonderful! Yea it is a real photograph of a painted woman. The lighting helped in the shading of the furniture. Congrats to the Professor from a photographer of 40 years standing. Prof.Modayil, India
