Very nice. Conveyed a mood very well.

Nice ambiance.

Really nice scene & neat mood and a creative source use. Could you overlay some of the surrounding rock textures to make the stairs look native to the location?

nice work author...gl

lovely manipulation..GL!

Great idea and mood! Just fix & smooth the jagged edges on the stone steps. GL.

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats for 1st

Congrats for 1st place!

There's potential here, but the image looks more like "Go Through Here If You Wish or Else Just Walk Around" since the end result appears to be the same. The arid setting suggests that a lush, green alternative (with water) visible through the doorway would be enticing but yet worrisome if the title were "Enter If You Dare...".

Hot entry, with clearly some awesome stock! ( dude, u gotta teach me how to find good stuff like this).
You should find another nice image with a Winter landscape and place it in the door.
Really, is not that hard, and the effect should be awesome.
Don't "green" it , like Dan said( no offence), but "WINTER" it. The sand vs. snow has more impact than grass vs sand, for obvious reasons. Good luck!

Real nice, awaiting for more of your entries.

Thanks for the feedback guys.. But I'm going to leave it as it is since that is what I saw in my imagination.. I don't want to get judged and voted on ideas which came from other people, only that way I will get a honest result and I'll see how 'I' did.. Thanks anyway

Author, i respect your 'standing ground', and afterall leaving it like that it's cool as well - the door is transparent so you don't know what expects you on the other side.
But there's no such thing as an honest result or objectiveness (LOL), since each person has his own do & don't-s list. Some, as you said, might judge you based on the idea, others based on the stock you used, others on techniques, others cause they always liked interdimensional doors, whatever.. There are so many judges & POVs that you shouldn't even care. So congrats to you for following your guts .

Thanks greyvmal i'm glad you understand..

Great 'twirl' effect.. works very nicely. I also agree with you sticking to your original idea, and i completely respect that. Even though the suggestions would add a level of complexity to this image (that might get you higher votes) the images works very well the way it is now. The blend between sources is very convincing and your lighting seems good. Great job

Thanks allot ponti55 for the great feedback

very very nice work author...i agree with Matteo about sticking with original idea...Love how u blended all elements and how u handle the shadows...best of luck

Thank you for the compliment erathion

Thank you all for voting!!!! Hurray!

Congrats for 2nd

Congrats...

Congrats!

Nice work author, but in my opinion, you could have made this with any other door frame.
I don't find a lot of the original source in this work.
Maybe if you deliver an SBS?

It is beautiful and I'm prone to agree with what ramsesje above has pointed out. But there are other entries here with the same issue.

The image is beautiful.Love the little kids expression.SPECTACULAR.

Im agree with u guys , its great entry but i can't see the door :s , i think sbs wud be great , we will wait for tht

very very nice work author...love the mood so much...best of luck

Congrats author...great entry...

Thank you to everyone

Twilight Zone-ish!

I'd like to see a high resolution version, but even in low res the edges of the stairs look very blurry. I would also work on the shadows, at the moment they aren;t very convincing. However, the idea is a good one. Good luck

yeah i see , thank you , tbh this is the 2nd image , cuz the first one was removed by the moderator , i worked on this one with rush , so i can see the bad result :s ,

very nice piece author...love the overall mood...gl

very nice idea

Hot entry.
