An old one, but one of my favourite bits of photoshop magic, sometimes hauling a tripod around pays off.
And you can see more half and half inspiration here.

Half and Half – Through the Stone and Wood
Faith and Continuity
Suleimani Aqeeq Ring
In Islam we differentiate between Muslims (those who submit to the will of Allah) and Momins (those who believe). Believers have attained a higher state of faith than those who submit. One of the five signs of a believer is that they wear a ring on their right hand, typically a carnelian, and this is mine.
My maternal grandmother bought this in Iraq as a gift for my father, her son-in-law. My brother inherited our father’s utterly gorgeous Omega watch, and I got the ring. That’s pretty much all he had, and as all my grandparents were poor as church mice the gift is probably as much as my grandmother could afford.
I also inherited my father’s mannerisms, but alas not his elegant fingers; the ring has been widened twice since I have owned it.
This is my symbol, of the things I believe, who I am and where I came from.
