'Very blurry dustmite' might be an alternative title... ;-)

Did you know....

that after about 5 years of using a pillow, 25% of the pillow weight is actually dustmite droppings :eek:. After first hearing that one I swopped my jim-jams for a chemical suit and an oxygen tank.

Just thought I'd share, sleep tight :D

The other 75% is drool :)

Not to mention they like to eat all that dead skin you leave around the house.

I do think the blur is way strong.

Great blurry effect! :D :D

Nah I really like this pic, great ambiance and the surfaces are very very good. The blur plus the specularity give that impression your are looking at the scene trough a lens or some microscope. That's really cool.

I know, I really should spend more time picking through my pillows with a magnifying glass and a pair of tweezers. What do you do....eat them or just flick them out the window?

Thanks for all comments :) The mite will return in a soon future, more focused and crisp

get married... they're good for things like cleaning and bringing cold cans of beer...

Is it composited? I'm willing to bet it is.

[awaman]

its all lightwave and photoshop touchup

Roughly proportional to the amount of truth in that statement...give or take 25%...

Interesting image, I really like the look of the mite's skin texture. Very skillfully done, just curious which skills you used, LW or retouching? Can we see a raw render?

Interesting stat and here's another one, saying about 10% is skin and dust mites.

4 out of 5 allergists agree.
