Congrats on 1st

Not sure the statement is correct,even though I like it,hic.

Good close-up and dof being small focuses on the eye

Good interaction shot,b/w gives it a bit more oooph

Very smart use of source image... good work !

Very very good chop !

Very nice. Might've cropped out that small piece of boat at the bottom left

fair enough again,are they any good though

fair enough

I like the colorful patterns

Certainly healthy interpretation in this,and the use of landscape gives it some depth and a sense of a long walk,like it.

Very busy shot,might be tempted to crop the bottom in this

Nice shot and angle used for this dragonfly

Just a thought with this one,they seem separate from one another so not so much interaction.

The baby really throws it over the top.. yipe yipe yipe

Oh come on now, who's going to clean up this mess? hehehe (great job)

White fairy head is distorted and a bit large(Or maybe it's the neck), and it doesn't look like her hand is holding the wand. A much thinner wand might work better. Good effort over all.

I am not an expert in Displacement Maps but maybe there isn't enough contrast in the boys face. If you have the time you may want to try a copy of the boy's face with levels, curves, or contrast applied and try the Displacement Map on that copy. Or you could duplicate they boy once again and set the top layer on a Hard Light Layer, Multiply, (or otherwise) to bring out more contrast. Then flatten those two layers and try again. I don't know if any of this will work, but you may want to try.

Really cool scene. The 2nd soldier with the gun on his shoulder has some weird distortion (transformation) on him. Otherwise a cool idea. Looks so much nicer in hi-res.

Thanks Z. I am happy for you. You got a pretty high score too! Good trick with the Color Range. I didn't think about that. Very impressive!!

You never know on here

I like that you included a person in this,gives it a bit of character

well done

This was my fave.

Felicitations !

Wonderful job. You are the Queen of this contest. What technique did you use to cut out the top porcupine?

Congratulations well done

Yes, it is definitely too late now. I was just speaking for the photo in general. It would take out a few flowers, but those in the upper left are of a different focus and exposure. Either way, it's still a nice shot.

Very nice, although I might have cropped it a little more closely to remove the top left.

The lizard does not support his fellow travelers :-P

This is a good chop. That hyena head is so awesome!! I love it. Wish it hada bit more nighttime look to it.

If those Porcupine balloons run into each other, do they pop?

Good interpretation of this contest

1 and 2,
good for you.

^ I wrote you a poem.

Great job. This was the best one for sure. BWR approved.

Great job…..

I love this chop ! without the cat maybe

The wood texture needs to conform to the contours of the face. Maybe try a displacement map.

Congrats Zizounai

Very creative and unique. I love those spiky balloons.

Congratulations on 1st and 2nd Sylvie.

Congratulations on 3rd and 4th.

I didn't look for the differences too much but I liked the Photoshop and voted highly.

That's A LOT of work for a "Thank You"... hehehe

Don,t remind me

Dat''s a lot of attitude! hehehe

Great work!

And get my fingers burnt,no thanks,still it does look old and in good condition

Yes I would
