The title of this photo is Perfect Organism which is inspired by the quote from the movie Alien which is also where the Xenomorph in the photo is from. This was taken with my phone inside my house using a lamp as background lighting. I took this photo with my iPhone 16 in portrait mode on December 4th 2024. To edit this I upped the contrast and darkened the shadows to get the silhouette effect. Then I changed some colors and upped the saturation a lot to get the interesting colors seen in this photo. After all that I added in the light rays shown in the photo then I also added in smoke effects. I think this could have been better if I had been able to get rid of the black bar behind the front of the head in the photo. I was inspired by Alien Romulus for this photo and my main goal for this was to get a really good silhouette of the inside of the skull behind the clear dome which I think turned out well. For this photo I used my Mezco One:12 Collective Xenomorph figure.

This picture is sick! I love the outline of the alien and how hazy the image feels. The lighting is alo really nice, overall really cool picture.
This photo, titled Perfect Organism, beautifully captures the essence of the Xenomorph from the movie Alien. The use of silhouette and dramatic lighting creates a haunting atmosphere, perfectly highlighting the alien’s eerie design. The creative application of saturation and smoke effects adds depth and enhances the unsettling mood.
The artist’s decision to use a Mezco One:12 Collective Xenomorph figure and iPhone 16 for this work showcases resourcefulness and attention to detail. The editing choices—especially the heightened contrast and shadow manipulation—succeed in emphasizing the translucent skull and biomechanical elements of the creature, which are signature features of the design inspired by H.R. Giger.
Overall, the photo effectively conveys the ominous nature of the Xenomorph and reflects the artist’s technical skill and creative vision. While the artist acknowledges room for improvement, such as removing distracting elements in the background, the image stands as a compelling tribute to a cinematic icon.

this is done real nicely I really like the lighting on this shot the way you pose alien make it looks really something that wolud definitely pop out of the movie but It overall really good
I love the Alien movies, so I instantly love this photo. I like the muted colors in this photo. I'd definitely hang this on my wall.
Amazing photo the fog/dust makes it looks like its inside some type of abandoned area. The silhouette doesn't give away fine details but dose give the shape allowing imagination of what it could look like. Great photo
This is fire, I like the lighting and double exposure stuff you did. I like how the silhouette leaves a lot to viewers' imaginations. Good job
This is a really cool photo! I like the choice of colors for the lighting and how you can still see some details within the silhouette from the reflections on the figure. The added light rays and smoke are also incorporated very well. I love the Alien movies!! Some of the best movie creatures in my opinion :-)
This is so cool! -Sophia
