Very very nice work author...gl

Simple and pretty

A very sweet little bird ... great creation.

nice image ...........

IMHO this would improve by replacing the "stones" with a pic of turquoise or something...

Interesting idea, but shadows on the wearer's neck would make it seem more realistic.

CMYK46 - Think I'm made of money??? and DanLundberg - there are shadows on her neck ....Maybe you mean at the bottom of the image?? Comments are appreciated, thank you.:-

Very creative work! The reflections are a bit too large, the should be the same horizontal length as the bubbles, but you blended the images very nicely! Good work

Awesome, as always! Great work!

I agree with Ponti 'bout the reflection of the silver... what... butt?? Hehehe... Bubble!
Interesting work! Those people are staring at the bubbles and thinking: oh my Gosh, I think I drunk too much...

reflection reduced,, erukuri said butt...hehehe

very nice different idea...gl

Unique idea. Since 100% of the boats, people, and trees are reflected in the water, it's not clear why the bubbles aren't reflected 100% as well. [Note that the river reflections are full-sized (untransformed vertical flips with a ripple blur, if you will), not squished, shadow-like things as you show in your SBS.] I think including in your description a one-sentence explanation of the event depicted here would be useful for those who can't be bothered to check out the SBS.

Dan, the boats, people, and trees are solid.. the bubbles are translucent and floating creatures, and they are FANTASY, they aren't REAL

As to needing a description, that would ruin the mystery and make the whole concept tumble down, besides the title says every thing, but thanks for the comment

nice work

so nice

nice idea

cool effect

woot

What am I missing here? I don't get it.

Very creative work.Good luck.

very nice work! gl!

Somewhere between step 5 & step 6 would have been better...final result is too blown out. Good image, though.

cmyk46 :: many other entries with sbs like this, although good results .. I was just imitating the way they, to much faster in making sbs...

sbs have I made so easy to understand, although too brief...

I feel like i wanna hate this, but i cant !! it's like ou could make any image from almost anything !!. Great vision and lovely result. Good lucck

Author: what CMYK meant was that the last color balance and brightness/contrast adjustment was taken too far.

I love the mood!
