i would remove the close up in the corner.. very nice job otherwise

Congratulations Charlotte!! I knew it'd be yours

Have you uploaded the right image?

Fantastic use of source.. very detailed work... inspiring

Your work is so inspiring! Great job

Nice job, but the lighting seems to be a bit odd, try experimenting with different blending modes, maybe. Good luck

Not a good use of source.. however i like the background, looks very realistic, and the girl is well blended.. maybe make her a tad darker. Good luck.

Heheh IDt8r.. really nice entry author! Well blended image... Great job!!

Subtle work... very impressive... high marks from me.. definitely one of the best in the contest. Great job!

the soil disappears at the edges, try using a textured brush to make a more uneven mask, that would make the soil appear more realistic. Good luck though.

Nice idea, try using the dodge and burn tools to add some depth to the characters

Nice lighting work.. i'd try to fix the flames, maybe add a few other flame sources. The entry seems off-theme anyway, but it's nice.

Haha, at least it's not just me ! Very good entry author!! Good luck

Let's not start another huuuuge nudity discussion. The Entry is great author.. very captivating colours, and a very surreal feel... great job!

I would suggest using the clone stamp tool to remove the pine tree from behind the pyramids, and i'd also suggest removing the lens flare.. also post your source links.

Very well created, nice reflections!!

I like the washed out 60's style look, but is this entry on theme?

very creative!

On the left, cloning stutter is extremely obvious on the trees, try to work on that. Good luck.

Well done with the trees, but more depth could be created with the burn tool too, maybe also think about adding some fog or haze in the background. Good luck.

That is really creepy..

remember to post your sources.. as for the strans above the watch, try using teh dodge and burn tools (dodge on the inside of the strands, burn on the edges) to create some depth.

interesting image, i suggest using a layer mask to blend the strong white line in the background. i would also suggest making the ray continue throughout the length of the entire image. Good luck.

super creative take on the theme

Try to upload a high resolution version

I agree with Nishagandhi, the image is excellent except for the flower on the forehead, and i think that the bottom bart of the hair should have a few more ends, try using the smudge tool at 1-2pxls. Good luck.

How do you do it?? Congratulations on a PERFECT entry.

One of the best in the contest... well done

Nice work, great atmosphere.

It pops out at you.. very creative.

Fantastic detail, great choice of grayscale... wow

There are a few masking issues in high res, for example, the arm on the left is transparent near the elbow, and the hand on the right is transparent at the top. This reminds me more of rapunzel than of goldilocks.. still.. good luck.

Nice image.. not very original, but still - good work.

Step 1 of your SBS to me looks a lot better than the final result, it seems to blown out, and in High Res, a lot of detail is lost.. perhaps you should revert back tos tep one and simply make a few colour adjustments.

Nice shadows, nice construction... There is a black outline around the flowers, but other than that, this is a very nice image. Good luck!

Edit: Author, it's your image, and it's great, you don;t have to change a thing

Shadows will make this entry soooo much better.

Very nice work.. great job with the rain

This entry should have done much, much better.. it's a shame it went unappreciated.

you have to place the link that leads directly to the brush you used, otherwise the image will be removed.

There is a black outline around the dwarf, try to remove that.

It's nicely done and well blended, but i find the background to be a bit unnecessary, they way you've created a mood and atmosphere suggests a more emotional image, so the image and the humour don;t really mix. Still, very nicely blended, shame someone got the earlier Good luck!

Beautiful entry... this is surrealism at its best!

Author.. you get better every single week! AMAZING!!!

Don't blur anything out... it is your image, and it's clear you;re trying to defend it. The black spots won;t stop me giving you a very high vote, and i'm sure many people feel the same way.

Well blended!

Hehehe, good idea!

your selections could be improved, but nice work overall..

I think it could be a bit more reflective, it looks more like a plastic toy, but good attempt!

beautiful detail!! Excellent work

i think the plane should extend throughout the whole image, and not have the black corners. Good luck though
