I really like this one! Great concept

This is really good...if the leaves had shadows it would be great!

i agree with cmyk but u did a very good work.good luck

just freakin awesome

this is fantastic!

wow,amazing,supercool,i love the way the other stuff is in grayscale,giving a dreamy effect and the scattered leaves.amzing job author

congratulations, nicely composition. Love it

great idea and execution! gl

CMYK and mariosilva: Thanks for your sharp eyes. The shadows I had on leaves were too light. I darkened them...looks better! I also added slight reflections to the leaves. Thanks for your suggestions!

Brilliant idea, I like this

Great idea........Awesome job.... Good Luck Author.

that's what I'm talking about!! Great Job!! simple and powerful!!

beautiful work, well done

fun fun fun.. awesome

can't stop looking at it. The edge of the canvas looks terrific, but it's not the continuation of the image. Was that intended? I think it's great, I wouldn't even have thought of making the edge out of the image, too.

Very original and well done.

good entry

fantastic idea author, i love this

Excellent, nice work

great work!!

OMG I LOVE THIS!!! *favs it*

very nice work!! good luck

awesome wrk......................so good...

Awesome work

its an awesome work and i like the idea.. im just confused why the girl shadow go the oposite direction of the others o.o;

Eladine: Good catch...I intentionally created the shadow this way because I wanted her to look as if she's entering the 'picture' space...also if I give her the same properties as the others...the shadow won't be as noticeable and she may look cut out...or not 'on' the bridge. Hopefully that makes sense...thanks for asking!

Great work!

thnx for explaining I knew you must of done it with intention again, very nice work

great use of source author.

Bravo! Great job!

Great! Very cleverly done!

Just fantastic! And for sure the best gallery exit ever! It's such a great compositon. The whole feeling of it is just amazing. Especially your colours. The black and white background, but the main part in colour. I love it! Good luck!

Looks very good, those footprints aren;t very convincing though. Good luck anyways!

Beautiful! I agree about the footprints. But everythimg else is awesome!! Good Luck

Should i remove them? Or maybe blur them, not sure what to do :P

very nice work author, like the change you did with the snow and different background. Other than she's barefoot and does not wear much I notice that the the mirroring in the water has no source? The trees in the background can't be the reason for it, they are too far away. The track in the snow is done pretty good, but wouldn't her long dress have left some mark on the snow, too?

I think this is a nice idea too. The problem with the foot prints is they are those of a animal... probably bunny.. Models do tend to walk the catwalk with one foot in front of the other, but this model is doing that in the snow with teeny little feet :p . Erasing them would make it more unrealistic. i think derivatix has a good point about the dress leaving a mark too which might help you with the footprint problem... the long dress behind the feet would kinda erase them a bit..

Don't remove ALL the footprints, just the once between two.

Have a look here, it might help you http://twig7998stock.deviantart.com/art/Snowy-Footprints-2-112235607

Made the footprints a little more soft and made the dresses trace on the snow.

Might have been better to find someone dressed right for the weather...

lol come on CYMK, I live in Chicagoland and we were shorts in negative 0 weather At least shes got long sleeves on.

ice queen cometh.. neat image

beautiful image, gud job!!

realy very beautiful.............work

awesome

amaging

much better!

the image has a few flaws,,eg the foot prints and reflection in the water. however, love the finished image. I really like your choice of model it provokes, she portrays an interesting story

Great idea.

Congratulations

great to see this again

Very nice! But the dress is too large. Try making the top part of the dress smaller, and then all the other parts, one-by-one, getting to the size of the bottom dress. GL

Really creative use of source! A reflection on the stage from her dress might be a nice addition...along with a shadow. Great job, author!

Interesting image

Wonderful

haha, great idea and well done!

It's SUPER BARBIE... doot da doo

That's a very sweet dress! Glamourous.

wow.very cool

It's Thunder Thighs Barbie!! Nice. Good work.

Really amazing!

*clap in my hands* It was about time, that someone does that It's really a beautiful dress and I bet that there are a lot of little girls, who liked to have a Barbie with such a dress Good luck again! *still clap in my hands*
