I agree with the hippo comments about him not quite fitting but this is one of the best I've seen as far as how you put it all together and made it look like a painting so well done!

Gorgeous light!

Very good composition here. The reflexion gives depth and vibration . The soft light wrap around the place give mystery. Good work!

Gorgeous!

stunning work, spot on lighting and framing

Amazing ! Look like a 3D picture !

good composition, well executed. good lighting and mood for this subject. well done.

Very nice, like the shiny floor

wonderful photograph

nice, don't know what to think about the hippo though.

Actually you cna really see that it's from 2 pictures.. cause the heaven behind the autumn tree doesnt match the one from the other pic.. And its much more yellow. otherwise really cool

Extraordinary!

Man I didn't even SEE the hippo at first, but after reading the comments, it made me wonder "What is a hippo doing doing in this fall scene in Ohio?" You really should take the hippo out. Also the blend of the yellow tree with the one to the side is not a smooth blend. That would be a good change for you to make. I must say that I DO like the texture you put over the image, it looks really good!

author, there is green round the hippo.....it is not our imagination, and, imo it doesn't do this picture any justice. The image would have as much impact, if not more, without the hippo in it at all!!

Congrats

I also think this hippo is a distraction...the first thing i did was checked in HR to make sure i wasn't seeing it incorrectly, and then questioning the hippos presence in the environment, not to mention the green halo around it...otherwise this is a beautiful image.

thats so pretty

thats so pretty

gud composition andlooking good

Beautiful composition and great blending, although the hippo bothers me. It seems he is more of a distraction than an addition to this beautiful piece. The reflection of the tree should be larger. Good luck!

I agree with CMYK too. The first thing you notice is the frame and not your really great image. So I would really suggest to get rid of it or to use one, that is not that big. The blending is very good indeed! But maybe you could try to adjust the colour of the water around the hippo. It looks like a green circle around the hippo and I think, that it could look even better, if the area around the hippo looks more like the colour from the little river. Good luck!

I agree (dare I say) with cmk about the frame. Other then that great image.

The frame is really distracting...pretty good blend of the other images...
Edit: Looks better to me now...

good job

i like high key photography, it makes images look very sexxy. While i do like what you have made, the curves along sides of her body are just a bit hard for the model used.

very nice

Very pretty, but before I looked at the sbs, I couldn't see the source image at all. Nice imagination. GL

Great image but honestly I could only tell you used the source image from the SBS.

Very creative, you have done a very good job on this one.

very creative. Congratulations

very elegant image gl

good job there...good luck

Needs more light & shadow...

Good blend!

Gods! Weird and shocking!

gud work
