looks good.
i vote only during voting time so i can compare

Pretty. Maybe it's just me, but I had a hard time 'reading' the vase initially. The white looked like just negative space with some reddish blotches. The SBS description told me what it was. Perhaps shading on the vase to make it appear 3D like the flowers would be clearer. Or maybe eliminate all the decoration on the vase so it's just a shape. [BTW "Bouquets" is misspelled.]

Yep, vase needs some shading, and it's missing a "u" in Bouquets".

Thank You for the tips. and the spelling correction as well..i guess, i really mispelled it... ^^ gotta correct it now...

good work

Thank You Tuckinator^^

nicely done.... good luck

Good imagination with this creation, gl to you!!

Think about it, how can a nest be made on a tree like that?

Idea is interesting, but Ressiv has the point; nest needs at least a branch to hold it. Or a hole in the trunk.

I agree with Ressiv and erikuri, but I think the intent was to imply a hole in the tree with the depth of the nest itself. Perhaps some more shading would create more depth (under the nest, perhaps). Nice blend regardless. Good luck.

I guess, I missed some details to put the bird's nest with... well, Thanks for your comments I got enlightened^^

great idea ! g l

a hires would be nice

not a bad idea

...I found the Garuda but I don't see the piano. Or the fingers. Or anything that could possily be asscociated with the source picture.

wow, I found the "Garuda", rhinos, and elephants. hehehe. continue to learn with that filter. because it is so amazing.

NIce abstraction. But IMO, I think that in case of a CBR, a sbs would help a lot the voters (well, I suppose everybody wants to see how you used the source image.)

It is a nice image and I do like the background treatment but as gamemastertips points out the image isn't really source dependent. A similar image could of been created from any number of sources. I've always felt that the point of a source contest was to create something unique to that source. Abstracts are nice but I'm more impressed with the clever use of a contest source where you can see the elements of the original image.
BTW you do need to post a step by step, it's required when no outside sources are used.
(see rules and guidelines 5.4)

Thanks a lot for the tips, comments, and compliments.. Will do my best to improve my designs =)

As for the step-by-step, sure.. i'll try to do that too... ^^

agree with spaceranger.

added an SBS now... I'm not so good at making SBS, though...

CBR'd

hahah i like it!
