Nice take on the source, but doesn't need the drop shadows.

Good use of the source, I kinda like the drop shadow effect but that's my taste and I think it gives the piece a "shadow box" feel. Very nicely done!

I'm with the Spaceranger on the drop shadow thing and the use of this source. Very good.

Yes I agree with spaceranger and lchappell nice touch on the shadows..
love the smoke section..awesome pic!..
Instant fav for me..GL author.

love the drop shadow, gives it a unique feel and nice creativity

I am with spaceranger, Ichappell, Jordy and Driven! It's my taste too!!! Great job, author!

This image has a really nice feel, its art thats worth framing (in my opinion) and it would fit as an illustration in a childrens book just as easely. It reminds me of a tv show I used to watch during my early childhood, it was called "de berenboot" ( The bear boat) The image is not a simulair image, its the feel of it, it brings back the memory to those early years of my childhood and that series was one of my favourites at that time.. The image is nothing more then just the rope, shapes, colors and drop shadow. Easy to understand, yet so powerful because of the simplicity.

Simple and yet beautiful. The colors go well together. Good luck author.

Sweet
