a favor was recently asked of me by a friend who works for children's hospital.  they are starting a fund raiser and need an image for the header of the fund raising flyers.

they took a few pictures of a kid there who is waiting for a heart transplant.  his greatest wish is to be a superhero.  we are hoping that one photoshop wizard can make this kid look like a superhero for the header.

photo credit will be given on the flyer and it does count as a tearsheet.

challenge is this: 

message me with your email and i will email you the images and size requirements.  replace the hospital lobby with something " superheroish ", give him a superhero logo on his shirt, and make any cool adjustments you want.  the images will be judged by the hospital vice president on MONDAY MORNING.

i hope to see a bunch of these pics - it is a really really really sick kid's greatest wish.  it will give you massive credit not only as a professional - but also as a human.  the clock starts now!

Wonderful! Hope the photo comes out really nicely. I wish I was that skilled and had all the resources with manipulation, I would do a series! God bless the wizards involved, and good luck for the selection!

Its heartening to note that they are doing it knowing theirs might not even be selecting and ready for the chopping process of selection.

I'm not so good in manipulation, but I hope you'll  find the proper person here because the  cause is worth it.

Just a suggestion, but you may get more responses if you post a picture preview. A lot of the photo wizards like to see the photo they are going to be working with smile

I just noticed this update, so I apologize for the delay.
Here is my entry, though I'm not sure which background they ultimately desire...
