good masking and wrapping

You need to make much more use of the source image

Hmmm... Pretty cool, but the source image is not used enough. I suggest making more things with the leaf. Good Luck

Congrats for your third place!

Congrats!

looks great

I agree with GolemAura, whenever you have a high res, upload it, it's relly worth it and it give voters the possibility to really judge and honor your work.

Author.. the main issue with this image is a simple HIGH RES (it's a way photoshoppers can see detail.. it's very important to them).. if you up load a HIGH res image so the detail work can be seen .. you'd be surprised how responses increase) ( I SUCK at photo shop.. and I admit it.. but love the idea you achieved with this.. very odd.. but very magical.. good luck)

The transition from Alpaca to Giraffe is really sudden. It looks more like you brutally killed the Alpaca and stuffed it with a giraffe than the giraffe is part of the alpacca. Also the transition between the leaves/moss and water is too sharp as the water is very unsaturated while the ground is very saturated color.

That is one LARGE small woman. Scale of woman seems off to me, but I like the composition a lot.

The color matches much better now. Awesome job!

Author, I see that now in your SBS...

Please post source links. The perspective on the masonry right above the falls is off, but it's an interesting image. I agree with Ponti that the metal railing looks out of place now...

i think you did a greaqt job.. i have a few suggestions. Try to match the water from the pool and the waterfall a little better, it goes from bright to dark very quickly. I persoanlly think this is a good enough image and doesn;t need the model in the picture, and i would also suggest that you remove the metal handle. Great job though, a very nice image

This image is fantastic: however, the lightsource hits the lower stones differently from how it hits the hotel, which makes it look off. Also you should make the concrete in the hotel slightly darker and more blue to match the stone in the masonry below it.
