This is splendid! I love the cartoony look

sooper CUTE!!!! and fun

One of the best this week..... good luck for your effort to create something like this......!

wonderful, so full of fun

Very Cute! Lots of Fun! Love it!

seems like a perfect job, and I was very amused,

simply perfect. the best entry by far & probably for the whole week across all contests. well done & good luck.

Congrats Lois this is really cute.

Nice work on the owl, but I think I like the image better without it.

I have to disagree with friiskiwi. I feel the image is much better with the owl, she balances it out and adds interest. Very nice work Author!

I like the owl more from a technical point of view than artistic; I mean I appreciate the quality of the work you did to manipulate the source image in such a way that it looks like it belongs, though I'm not convinced it needs to be there in the first place

BTW everyone else, check out the high-res version.

very original, a new image of spring
bravo

P.S: I have emailed Mattox informing him that I was using his image, and sending a link to this competition, also made a note in his comments

great perspective and idea.
very nice
in my humble opinion, I would have kept the white color of the water flowing, a little lighter.
In any case, nice work
bravo

Very Very Cool! ... saving my vote to see if an SBS is posted (would love to see one)

A background might add something.

Nice effort to basically create the car rather than painting over a real one
