look so real that my eyes are always deceived staring at this pic, amazing work......love the water and the reflections on it,.....

Hes going to need more then a mop. Very nice editing.

This is sooooo realistic!

This is so well done. The depth of the water is consistent throughout as indicated by the columns, the man's legs, the ashcan in the back.; as well as the distortion of reflection caused by the water. Nice work. I also like that you changed the "lighting" to give the look a less sterile look.

Good work! We'd see the entire framed picture at right, and there would be some refraction on it and the broomstick, otherwise nice job.

It's so perfect!... That's why we can suspect about the photos we see all over the world - maybe PS is acting!

Very well done!

lol, an awesome creation, poor guy. =)

Super work and a very believable image only the refraction is needed to pull it all together.....

Agrees with the egg (CMYK) otherwise, nice job. GL!

Pretty nice, but there are some reflection issues. The columns reflect quite crisply, yet the bright yellow caution tape barely reflects at all. The guy's reflection is properly a simple vertical flip of him from the waterline up with no scrunching, but that is not the case for the columns or side wall (and thus the ceiling and its hanging lights). [The back wall is OK.] Since the papers are submerged and the water surface is doing the reflecting, I would expect more mop-head reflection (not to mention mop-handle reflection due to all the dark-gray background it's against) given how much everything else is reflecting.

Thanks everyone for the comments! I updated my entry according to your suggestions.

awesome...
gud work author

This is a really nice work!
Just a minor detail: the reflection on the water should be infront of the broomstick and not behind.

gud work author.. but small doubt..

Really nice mysterious entry author. It really makes you wonder what the story behind this picture is. Good luck!

Good mood, but the glow on the ceiling is distracting, as there is no light source for it.

Yep, the ceiling glow is the only thing to be fixed! Very nice, GL...

Sends a shiver down my spine……great work! Atmospherics are first class just need to remove the glow from the ceiling it is distracting

Thanks for the feedback! Image updated.

i seldom get frightened by artwork ....also I watch too many scary movies (Japanese type the most) your picture got the taste and I am scared...i think I first time get scared by artwork this year...

This was really freaky..I'd scroll down quickly avoid your entry coz it kinda scary u know ..N really great work author.,.Congratulations

Good image. Please fix your links.

They seem to all be working for me CMYK, Is there one in specific you are having trouble with? Or are they all messing up?

Hmmm...they're fine now, must have been a glitch. Anyway, good luck!

ok, thanks for letting me know! and thanks for the good luck!

VI like the concept, but something is missing.
I´d remove the lamps and darken the mood, alt. insert a sign saying this is a very fancy stop. Right now this glamouros part looks a little misplaced, despite the person lying there. Another way is to make the whole underground look very fancy...
IMO...GL

It's a very glamourous subway!...

Quality image great work here! @ erikuri if you think this is glamourous you should see the russian-underground-metro

very cool work author...gl

Very good blending! Good luck to you

author nice thought... gud but leftside lits i think lights links vth chain na...
how possible to lights directions strieght...
i think that's not correct..
lights direction shoud be vertically....
think once...

brain scaring

Would you see the reflection of the giraffe that far away? I only wonder.....

Very surreal, I like it

Cool concept......

WTF? Wow, I had to stare at this one for a minute. Pretty tripped out author, GL!

Odd, but yet kind of cool. I would consider converting the 'hanging' lamps to flush-mounted ones, however.

Thank you for all of your comments. Thanks tnaylor21286 I WAS going for surreal and you made my day. Mounirupa and DanLundberg: I kept the lights as they were on the left to give it an "antigravity" or an "as-yet-unknown-techology/Science Fiction" feel to it. As far as the giraffe reflection in the water Disco, I wondered about that myself and you're probably right but since it's Surreal, maybe I'll get away with it? he he Thanks J. for the great source and the FAV

cool work author...

I love this. It's great how the longer you look the more you see... like those aliens in the back! Great job author. GL.

I really like the idea and feel on this one. I do have some problems with the giraffe though. It seems to be just cut off on the lower back and the reflection would start at the edge of the water because you wouldn't see the flat part of the wall. Nice entry though! Good luck!

very good
