very interesting

Very original! At least it's not floating in the sky with a waterfall dripping down

Well done

Very beautiful.....It has a peaceful feel to it Best of Luck

The bubbles and the lighting are very nice!

So inspiring!

super cool entry author....GL

Nicely done! The mysterious and scary mood give the touch to the scene.

Great job.., and welcome back.., hope to see some more excellent stuff.

Sub-par for you.

Makes me wonder whats in the caves.

i like this, but the source is a bit squished flat IMO

I agree somewhat with Tuckinator, even though you did really manage to make a beautiful picture. Either way. I still love it. Great work!

I also agree with Tucker about the flatness. Fix it and you'll have a very nice entry. GL!...

Cool!

Nice overall work, a really nice looking image, but be careful with the white edges around the tree and the man. Also be sure to post all of the sources you used.

EDIT: Ah, okay Great job and good luck.

thanks for the comment. the white margins were made intentionally, because of the backlight. i posted all the sources. the man is made by me using paths and painting over.

Nice color. The turtle would have a bigger shadow, and maybe blur the rim lighting just a bit. Good luck!

Welldone Author..

Great work author...Few minor nit picks...u should blur a bit black boat and people on horizon,then glow from the sun on a guy and on a tree can be way better,u achieve that on the turtle,try to do the same on other objects...So that's it,i love this work so much and i will wait with voting,maybe u apply some changes...best of luck

i love the shadding you have given on the turtle
great work
