Creative for a CBR, but the lighting and shadows are totally inconsistent, with the black background only adding to the visual confusion.

It's imaginative and creative, but not cohesive as a visual image - I'm sorry, but it's like a "Photoshop doodle."

Excellent construction and I can see the source perfectly, and i can see it all through the please.. the original image is clearly visible...

the lighting is perfectly fine for a frontal flash, great job author

the triangular construction is very well balanced and cohesive, and nothing is flat,

I really like the work author, and the entire image is completely yours and you didn't have to "borrow" an image from a stock site

and don't be sorry MossyB, Just try to learn more about non representational-ism, it's in every hotel and hospital waiting room in the Art Deco district of South beach, and this image would fit in perfectly

Great Job AUTHOR.. good luck

Thank you very much for your great support and comments.. Drivenslush..

@ mossyb: Thanks

I FULLY understand "non-representational," DrivenSlush. That has nothing to do with my comments to the AUTHOR, but thank you for presuming to educate me.

Agree with Drivenslush...top job author. Your lighting is fine, reality does not always have to play in these images.

MossyB.. well from your statement, calling this a CBR'd piece is incorrect, and then saying your sorry for ripping into it with a confidence only seen in the likes of Bill O'reilly is down right weird, not to mention calling it NOT COHESIVE when it's in the shape of a triangle, one of the most balanced forms in the universe (check out the Last Supper) leaves your comment somewhat to be desired.. but then again this is IMHO.. this is a very excellent chop, and it made grand use of the source.. complimenting it, then calling it a doodle, is just not that cool

Nice imagination and well constructed image author ......all the best to u .....

Hi friends!!.. I really appreciate your comments for my entry.. Drivenslush vs Mossyb.. both are very talented artists and making this site always keep active with their comments and suggestions..

Wonderful detail and a very delicate touch! Don't know about "real" or "not real" but I do know that it look almost surreal to me and I find the lighting works.
