I love this piece, and I even love the fact that you put your style in it. There are so many artist on here that are recognizable by their works. Once you post enough photos, people will begin to recognize your style, plus, it takes talent to create a series of pieces in the same style, but have each one be it's own piece, I also think it takes a lot of talent for an artist to be diverse, but I think it is easier to be diverse than consistent. I really admire your work, your abstract thinking, and the way to twist and bend the rules. People forget that at isn't inside a box.

yes, that is true......fashion models are WAY too skinny usually and walk funky too Most ruway fashion models look like an accident waiting to happen.

I'm not sure what an "unko pose" is like ibmaxed said, but I think if you had the arm posed like that, then you shouldn't have done the hand holding the shoe. OR if you had her hold the shoe, you shouldn't have had her arm like that. It looks uncomfortable and unnatural. Would have been better with her mouth either closed or just a faint smile. Love the lighting, the fashion and everything else of this! I think it'll place high.

this is a great shot and great for the theme. I only have one nitpick....her elbow looks as though it should be on something because the way the arm is posed. It looks uncomfortable and unnatural. But I wouldn't go changing anything because this shot will do great!

I understand what you mean about the printing/copyright issues with the high resolution and for a neat work like this, I would feel the same. BUT, you have to take into consideration that some voters MAY vote lower for the simple fact that they can't see the WORK put into the photoshopping. Wrong or right, that's the chance you have to take.
I don't know enough about the droste effect but I always thought it was supposed to be an exact replica of the first image. Either way, I like this and believe you should frame it (no pun intended) and put it on a wall!

Huh author, this is fantastic piece of work, great imagination, style, execution, everything...But IMHO this is not pure droste...On side with that,your attitude about Hi Resolution is not welcomed, for me for sure its not, cause this is side with contests and u participate in contest, and for all of us high resolution is very important because we want to see all details, all good things and all faults, and that is visible only in high resolution. That things are important for better evaluation of entry...Also i understand your point...any how i wish u best of luck

Yes, very good in hi res, well done. One question......was the grain applied after the shot was taken?

Creepily odd, which is a good thing. The hand on the top of the picture frame should be deleted as it merely detracts IMO (especially when it's identical to the far-right hand on the bottom of the picture frame). I would also delete the birds from the background as they strike me as just distracting space fillers. The stars are probably OK but likely wouldn't be missed if you left them out. I don't get the rounded-rectangle thing just inside the image edge that can't be discerned on the right side. The title is enigmatic, but so is the image, creating a good match.

Hi author, and welcome to PXL....... Hi res is good........... a grainy image, but I think you intended that

I like it and do not know this Author btw. Good luck Sunday. I wish you had hi-res though.
Oriel has made a very good point here, which is odd for an art community to not think outside the box, but I don't think it is many as they stand out in the crowd imo.
Cheers

my suggestion is that you remain anonymous so than people wont vote low on your entries once you piss someone off with high vote power.

There are other artists whose work is easily identifiable, and at far lesser quality than this. As with any artist's style, some will like it, some won't. Just as those with poor quality who are easily identified by their style are identified, it will all "come out in the wash," and the voting will decide.

It's NOT the author's problem, it is his style. If you disagree, flag it, let the mods tell the author he can't create in his own style because it is identifiable.

I far prefer this to simple repetitive patterns trying to pass themselves off as droste effects...
