After taking this photo I noticed a few issues. First, because the ornament is a sphere, it is impossible to photograph without being in the picture myself. Also, it takes a lot of zoom so I can't even take the picture from far away to be less prominent.So the next best option was to try to fake it with photoshop. The new versions (CS3 and CS4) both have 3D rendering that would let you wrap a photo around a sphere. Since I don't have either, I used the spherize filter. The secret is to use the filter TWICE, otherwise it just looks bloated. The rest is blending, layering, opacity, and adding in the color cast from the ornament. as well as the lens flare.
