nice composition but SBS?

Very nice...as I said with many entries here: "doesn't look like a hoax photo but very nice."

awesome.. (source not working.. I think only for me) I think some lights coming from the centre of ufo will be very nice...

hereisanoop....if you read the title ... you'll see looks like a hoax photo!!! indeed, just only after title, but is really hard to be on theme!!!...))...thx for the comm and suggestion!

It's not hard to be on theme: check out "Rooftop Sighting," "The Visitor," "Crop Circling," and "Breaking News." Still, the picture is an awesome sci-fi scene.
Just check out the latest entry "And then I looked up." Great example of a picture that looks as if it was taken by an average guy, of a UFO that seems pretty real.

EDIT: AHA! Knew it was you! I think your PS skills are pretty awesome alone...

gamemastertips....the entry...Breaking News....realy.... isn't in theme....!!!...if that entry is in theme ... then either could be, or it doesn't matter ..

Breaking News, along with others, follows the theme that "even in high-res, you should not be able to tell whether the picture is real or fake." Obviously, the over-dramatic lighting makes this look too fake for a hoax photo. I know, alot of people have forgotten about this rule by now. There's no doubt that this is still a great entry, but it could be more on theme in a more photo-esque scene. You did an awesome job on the UFO, btw.

looks good

Good title great picture

Nice piece of art! You used some nice pics.... And who cares about the line "even in high-res, you should not be able to tell whether the picture is real or fake." .... Start adding 500 different little stipulations to the theme that are personal preferences and you just end up stunning creativity - imo.

Braska...that was the point of this contest. Lots of people can make a really stunning, dramatic, sci-fi scene, but can you also do it while making it look like a hoax photo? This contest isn't called "UFO" it's called "UFO hoax." Ignoring that rule makes the contest too easy. And it's just the one rule, not "500 different little stipulations."

yes, that was a VERY obvious exaggeration when I said 500, was trying to make a point. Saying "your image HAS to be at least 1600 X 1200", the photo has to look extremely life-like, also a "daylight scene is recommended". My 'point' is that it stuns creativity, I fully understand the 'point' of the contest. And why couldn't someone of taken the photo above? Looks good to me, they snapped the shot, tweaked it a little in Photoshop and posted it on flickr, right? And its a nite scene!? Vote lower? naaaa. Outstanding image.

Okay, I see your point, Braska. I suppose it's a matter of opinion what looks realistic or not. We're conditioned to believe that these things are fake, so we consider this "unrealistic." Why? Why can't it be realistic? Yes, once again, great entry.

Fabulous work...very very well done author...high marks from me...

One might argue that producing something awesome while limited by onerous contraints shows true creativity.
