Very simplistic........Good luck on the sunny entry.

This is down right beautiful... I love the way the leaves show trough the glass to the sides... well done! Great SBS! Good luck!

couldn't tell the stain glass was made from scratch before looking at sbs, nice job

Beautiful, gorgeous, wonderful, marvelous... what else? I think there's no a perfect word for a perfect work like this!...

wow, this is

beautiful

very good

Thanks so much for the nice comments.

Very good

Congrats!

Looks good...high res would be even better.

nice chop spring loaded= great idea

Not bad but the front of the shoe seems a little flat, like it lacks definition. I would try a displacement map or even some dodge and burn.

good suggestion - less flat now

Good idea and good combination of colours as well....

Good chop!

lol awesom and funny

Congrats!

The background looks quite distorted, when scaling objects in photoshop remember to hold the Shift key to maintain proportions.

Hi everyone! I'm going to give this photo a failing grading for two reasons 1) its mine, you can see the originall here: http://www.guildphotos.com/bestofwaterwold/h56aab41#h56aab41 and 2) its got a dumb looking structure superimposed. By the way, I'm a lawyer, this image has a copyright and I LOVE a good law suit. Bring it on! - John Guild

perspective..
EDIT: Looks better, but first i dont know what the water on the middle of the table is..? and if it's supposed to be like deep, it doesnt seem like that. and the blurring is different between source pic and background.. either ways,, pretty good

Sorry John, thank you for pointing it out. I found this picture on flickr.com using the advanced search with settings to "Only search within the Creative Commons-licensed content: Find content to modify, adapt, or build upon". I will go ahead and change the background. (You may want to contact the flickr user to see why your copyrighted picture was under the Creative Commons licensed pictures.)

Author, I completely understand Creative Commons as I was part of the group involved. Under the conditions set you where were suppose to acknowledge Attribution; instead the image was posted without my signature which was apparently cut off before posting here. You picked the wrong guy my friend. I could have easily pulled a Scott Bourne on you. Your lucky day. I have no more to say about this subject nor will I be visiting this site again. Just stay away from my stuff. Case closed, take care, John Guild

on the left it kindof looks as if were just plopped there....

points55, maXed, Jgrafix thank you for your constructive comments, I changed the background and made few adjustments.

Really creative! Looks real

Author, screw that guy! It's his own damn fault he listed the image on flickr under a creaetive commons license. He's probably not even a lawyer. I hope he's serious about not comming back though.

I agree with you jawshoewhah, he only joined to stir things up. I don't think he truely understands what Creative Commons means. I doubt he is a lawyer...he just plays one on tv.

First one was better,its shame why u have to change that one....

great

Beautiful

Gorgeous!

........wow!

Nice execution...really nice composition.

nice idea

Well done.
