Even though I have NO idea what your comments says, I think I know what "Severed Tie" is that you base this one which I comment you for putting into the image without telling us. However, what exactly did you chop??? There's no SBS. It doesn't look like you did anything more than just a desaturated photo on an angle and maybe a filter or two and honestly, it's against the rules and guidelines listed under the photoshop contests. Quoted from the rules and guidelines: "DON'T submit filter-only works. Take time to make something unique, it will increase your chances of winning."

Sorry to play the PXLeyes police but everybody and myself has to abide by the rules and it just makes it more fun for everybody.

@jawshoewhah: there's been some more done than just filter work. Two different images are combined together plus some extra PS work. Apart from that, a SBS is only mandatory when no external sources has been used (but of course they're always welcome).
@author: quite sad image , maybe the person would look more alone if you'd see him more in the background (so that you see that really no one is near him), but that's up to you. Good luck!

Yeah well Like I said earlier an SBS would help. Even in high res, the two sources look too perfectly blended. I guess you can take that as a compliment.

Sorry my bad for not looking at your source links.

What are you all arguing...??? I deliberately use the Japanese language so that you do not know what that means .. hhe

pain shouldn't have to be expressed in words, anyway. some events are so devastating, it's easier when we look forward instead of back.
