good idea -- looks a bit flat -- have you looked into using the dog image as a displacement map? -- it will give your stone more of a 3d look

Good idea -- check masking of and around the apple -- also there are some dark edges around the arms of the girls -- try a low opacity brush to blend them out or maybe a bit of blur on the edges will give the dsame effect.

i think the "story" is not to good, but the pictures are very impressive!

Weird maneuvering, as if the captain is not quite sure as to which way he wants to go

I like the concept, but a bit blury and dusty, need to work on the resolution.

good idea -- masking on the arms could use some touch ups


Much cleaner now

LOL, we won't tell

this needs some explanation

Is that the real you in the painting?

Beautiful, lovely colours.

nice and your polishing is as lacking as mine.

No, Not the tattoo, just knew it was you, also usually recognise your photos.

I was right.

First with an on theme, and I bet I know who you are, not that this contest needs to be anonymous.

really different good luck author

I would have corrected the "pet eye" flash reflection in the iris, darkening it, but otherwise this is a very good photo of your dog.

Author, Place the ORIGINAL IMAGE of the puppy in your sbs and describe it as MY PHOTO

(Cutie pie)

The sea reflecting the mood of the sky...good catch...

Coo COO (as in Crazy) Coo Coo Banana's! (Also spelled Cuckoo.. like Cuckoo Clock hehehe

coo coo neat!!!

Maybe it's the Sword of Damocles

Congratulations on 1st place, great shot

congratulation!)

Bronze statues are poured, not carved...

What are the 3 objects?

Beautiful!

The horizon waterline shows a definitely tilt down to the left. If you even out the horizon line, this will be a stronger image.

Great capture

you may need to crop the bottom, to get rid of the green and gold.

I would have cropped this so that more of the subject (the sky) dominated the image. The water appears to be the focal point, with the sky almost an after thought.

rbrum check the Hi-Rez, there is a building...on the bottom right.

Stare at the dot for 40 seconds or so, and then stare at a white wall

Nice... I figured it out, but some instructions would have helped.

Wow is that your boat and work?

I love the fact that the fish is looking at us.

Great shot

awesome, really a nice picture =)

interesting.

WOWZERS!!!

Doesn't look like a flying "machine" more like a flying animal.

this is pretty WEIRD! (You might want to go along the dogs edge and blur or smudge on fur so it doesn't look so choppy.. I can only see it in the high res but I know a fur edge gets higher votes) JUST IMHO of course, it's such a weird concept anything goes GOOD LUCK!!!

Ahhh... now there's one

construction or deconstruction?

Nice

Interesting... but I don't see any trees

There is so much I like about this, but I feel it would be even better if you cropped a bit off the bottom and the left.

Thanks Author.

Nice scene, well-framed.

How is this backlit? Unless you are saying the sun is shining from the centre of the Earth?
