Cute. Might raise the brightness just a touch.

perfect shot ♥ love the DOF and the colours!

EDIT: I hope they don't pull it either. Just a suggestion, maybe put the texture of the tennis balls on them. It would match the source better and be less like Monsters, Inc. because right now it doesn't seem like you used the source much and without an SBS, I can't tell. GL!

I'm almost sure this is an HOMAGE to Wazowski's old avatar.. hehehe... (and because it's not a direct copy.. I'm sure it will be okay) AUTHOR.. red flag this yourself so you don't get pulled... but I'm pretty sure you are in the clear.. GREAT JOB

There have been more waz entries on this site than I can count, and I've never seen any pulled.

Very funny! It's possible to see the tennis ball texture, but uploading your sbs you'll avoid troubles... Good luck!

tx for the comments SBS added...

well done author, it looks like it would have taken awhile.

Nice job with the textures...please post a link to the background source.

just beautiful all round.. good luck on this author.. (if there was a picture in the dictionary that describes level.. this image would be it LOL) it so perfect it make my computer feel crooked LOL

Yep, a nice image indeed, just fix the reflection - it should be more "flat" and a little disturbed by the waves.. Have a look at boats' reflections in shallow sea waters. Good luck!

wow i love tis image great job author!

First class textures & composition maybe add a bit more light to the edges of the sails & mast...

Very nice job Author........G/L Author.

Nice work

nice image.. but the reflection is not right, compare it with the reflections from the stones in the water, that should help. nice work btw
