hehehehe.. good thinking author..very clever.. I think there might be some remenant shadow on the tail of the cheetah.. but the high res doesn't have that much detail... the composition and message is very well put together.. good luck

if u play more with the reflection of the of cheetah in water and brighten up a little more the opposite side of the shadow wil give it a effect.the source image is having the light coming from behind so brighten up the parts of cheetah having shadow to match with the rest.

This is a cute concept, when you changed the colors of the cheetah, something weird happened so it looks like it's not native to the photo though. If I hadn't look I would have thought it was pasted onto a new background. It's a little to saturated in color on the bottom of the main part of the body.

i love it. it is a bit hard to tell that it is a snail, however with the lighting that has it. the snail does go in that way, and the angle and perspective in my opinion make the shadow hard to see which to me is realistic

cute

Nice! I didn;t get it was a snail until i looked at your sources, it looked like a gazelle at first glance xD Good luck!

great
