Very nice looking image - the blending work is very well done - I need a mower like that it would save on gas

Super great planning out the image (for fun, you should have the butterfly pulling on his butt!!! Just kidding, great job and having some one lie on a chair and a table just for a photoshop... LOLOL

Good idea, well executed!

Oh, thanks for the Fav guys.

Good image author, but you need to post the original uncut photo in the SBS so we can see how you manipulated it.
EDIT: Thanks, now we can see your work.

Uncut is now up loaded.........sorry.

Really great idea but there's some room for improvement: the light casting on the boy is a bit oversaturated, specially on the right fore and upperarm.

What I see from the original photo of the boy that you even made the dark areas lighter, I think your profit is to be gained here. You can make the original photo a bit darker and use that as a blending layer over the original photo, so you make the lighter areas come out more. On top of that you could lighten the areas you want lighter a bit more.

Something else: in the high res there's a purple area over the boys thumb and the moon and the boy are transparent at some areas, these last 2 are easy fixes though

Cool idea. I admit I don't get the boy-in-outer-space thing unless this is supposed to be an ad for a sci-fi movie or something. As an alternative, I think if the boy's original hedge and tree-trunk background were retained and then augmented by the intense stars-and-Mars [or more-appropriately moon?} sky, this would be more understandably dramatic. [BTW what is the light source for the jar lid and his fingers holding it?]

lol! I can't stop laughting, your entry is fantastic and funny but your SBS with your own pict is funnier!!

Can only imagine what a pain it would be to do a chore like this during weightlessness. Great job.

I love this!

Thank you MossyB

Now that you did this, it's slap-my-forehead, 'why didn't I think of this' time! This is the perfect response to the theme. BTW adding "Tree" to the title would be more accurate IMO plus would create more tension between the title the unexpected mage.

That was my intension Dan. Glad you noticed I made the mistake. Thanks.

This is NEAT... (You could play with the hand or background color a wee bit so they stand out a bit more) a little burning where the branch meets the hands could help as well, they look a bit detached) but that's just IMHO.. the overall concept is Fantastic.. Good Luck author
