oh my.. why not just pull my heart out and make it melt.. what a lovely idea.. good luck author.. I hope you do well

(stupid nit pic.. get rid of that micro line in the main frame.. it looks like a power line.. dont notice it in normal res .. but in high res can see it.. doesn't bother me .. but I know it willbother the voters .. good luck

Fixed it. Thanks!

excellent fix.. hehehe.. gave you a perfect entry score because no one ever listens to me because I'm loop the flippin loop.. LOL.. its a very lovely image.. .good luck author/artist

Great idea! Almost everyone looks into the door. (I can think of one other looking out pic.) This one is really great, though.

Excellent! good thinking and very well done.

Ahh i saw this a while ago but my computer crashed just as i was typing a comment! Very nice image, you did a GREAT job.. everything fits perfectly and those light beams from the winow... tip-top!

I really like this. well done. However one small problem is the use of the same door frame. Perhaps clone different sections of it to create different grains and marks. good luck

I love the fact that you thought about flipping the image... great job and great blend! Good luck.

nice choice of images author. lovely outcome

now that's inventive!

Neat!

Looks good, very nice composition.

i love monks...

Really good image...the scale of the leaves is a bit large, but still nice work.

nice choice of colors. All is quite sharp save the monk - perhaps blurring everything to match his depth of field?? Just an idea - great work here.

I agree with CMYK46 but this is a good pic

I'm not sure.. but there's almost a face look to this image.. hehehe.. good luck.. powerful piece

Good image, but I don't get the train...

I get it now, but you gotta admit it's a bit of an obtuse message...still, good pic over all.

Hey! Makes sense. The train and all. I can take the explanation a little further. It a little further. You've got some baggage on that train, too! I was married to an alchoholic for 5 years.

Beautiful image.. good luck

after reading postings, image portrays more than meets the eye at first glance. a suggestion: put a synopsis where you put "cloud source and wine glass etc" although i mark on the image information can give an insight to authors thoughts of which could improve marks. ( for me at lest) .

guess I have to be sober to understand this. hehe just kidding.

Good!

This is really imaginative, like it a lot.

Author... You MUST save step 2 of your SBS in some sort of file.. it alone is a miracle of color,form and texture (IMHO) this final result is awesome as well, super high marks but STEP 2 of your sbs is HIGH ART (not for contests.. it's too advanced... it's in a realm all it's own)

Just IMAGINE it mounted on a giant Black Frame in an entry way of a sky scraper.. YOWZA

nice

Creative use of source. Way to go...avoiding the obvious! Nicely done!

This pic is fantastic, great image.

Cloning could do with a bit of tweaking on the top part of the door, but good job closing the door otherwise.

This is good! Sometimes the simple ideas are the best...good luck!

Thanks for pointing out the cloning. I have corrected it

cool!

The shadow from the door on the ground still looks like it is there. The wall looks crooked where the door was. Good job on this though!

If you look at the source image you will see that the wall is crooked. Also I left the dark area that you call a shadow because I took into account the door swinging and hitting that area leaving dirty marks. Thanks for the constructive critism anyways

nice

simple idea, good use of tools to produce the idea. well done
