Cute

cute!!

I would make a sky& sea out of the background. Having a rain gives you problems in rendering the humidity, water drops, etc, so you might want to rethink that.

What a sweet monkey!

Give that monkey a banana.....lol cute

lovely illustration.. reminds me of Curios George..

fun image, a lovely childlike feel ( that is a good thing) . the sort of image one would see in a story book.

if you're going to add rain you should add it to the front as well as the back because the camera would see some rain in front of it..and the tail looks unattached from the monkey. I know it's behind the leaves but the entire base should be touching the leaves. The shoulder should be drawn out more as well. Other than that nice original entry.

What a bashful look he has!

nice

hehehehe... it's the WB froggie... woo HOO

Superb!

Cool...a dog that can walk on water...

The original photo is sunny so in order to make the fog natural you should also try to desaturate the water plants. Also add some blur on the dog, he's in the background and in the fog so he shouldn't look so sharp.

nice

Well Done!

Nice idea. What I dont get, the crane in the original looks way sharper than in this entry. There's no way to make the bird sharper again? Also, compare the shadows from the source pic to the shadows that you made for the crane. In the source it's more greenish, perhaps you'd like to adjust that. Good luck!

Yeap, like waz said make the crane sharper, add the crane's head in the picture, add the fish head from the other contest into it's beak and you got yourself an entry! Make it look like the crane just picked up the fish. Use full size picture for better Q : http://www.pxleyes.com/images/users/t/tapiona/36/fullsize/4adf924f809d4.jpg

Crane is way too big...

I can't change the picture, my computer or site won't let me upload any pictures, I have been trying since last night, sorry peeps =(

Shadows for legs are a little off and would have been nicer to see more of the bird.

Nicely Done!
