    Matt:
    Thks for this technique; this is creative & fun.
    My DSLR captures images quite well, but my imagination captures “mood”. I can visualize, say, four, favorite photos of my SO (Significant Other) having mood injected via techniques like this, then arranged in a tight-knit geometric design on the wall of my den.
    Oh ya.
