Good idea, but the figure's edges are too smooth. Many rocks are just cut off, when they would have rounded edges showing beyond the wire. Also, blur the shadow a bit, and the shadow would not have a reflection in the window. Do a few tweaks & this will be great.

Still a great work author! Don't let the voting fool you or other, this is the work that should have been on top or closer, the droid voting on this site is silly, votes for something totally different than the original, not even recognizable, but as long as the shapes, patterns, colors, are used, the ultimate outcome is: bring some picture or other creation or idea, and just use: patterns, shapes, colors, and such, and you will win, the highest scores on this site are ones the original is not even being able to recognize, just make sure you do an SBS.... and you are golden.

In all honesty, author i felt it looked better without all the splatter. At the moment it feels very chaotic. However, it's your piece and i can't tell you what to do

Good luck.

Lol on the theme... haters... when you try something that has already been done, so what, It's about each person's creativity and making it their own... as I learned in the military, "There are many like it but this one is mine!", and owning you did author, great job!

Now if the author posts seven more just like it then well... it may be over done... lol...

I'm sure you will get many congrates on this one author, keep up the awesome chopping.

Author the choice is yours ... I think that you have a wonderful image here! I took a long look at it in Hi-res ... IMHO I feel that the Hummingbird and the Tomato are very good! The 2 blackbirds and dragonfly are distractions from the overall composition and pull the eye away from the focal point of your image (hummingbird and tomato).

There is a saying that "sometimes, less is more" in this case I think that your picture would have more impact with less happening ...and the general consensus is you would improve your image if you removed the blackbirds and dragonfly but as I said ... in the end the choice is yours!

EDIT: MUCH BETTER!

Author,

I put in a very high vote on this one, hoping you will abide, and take out the 2 black birds and the dragonfly, my vote doesn't mean much but this image is a top, post me on the front winner without thus pesky critters holding it down. Best of luck and keep on chopping!

The dark diagonal stripes top and bottom are distracting and too dark, IMO, and the hummingbird is so desaturated it loses a lot of visual "punch."

Oh no! Fly little bird, fly!!!! Great work ... I would probably take out the 2 black birds and dragonfly ... the Hummingbird is perfect and I think the others actually distract from the focal point of the image and the sizes seem off (dragonfly is a little too big and Blackbirds a too small) which throws off the overall impact of the image!
