Nice blend of a 3D program and a source photo, GREAT JOB!

The blimp that you made using 3D Studio Max is very realistic. Given all the control that artificiality gave you over your final image, I have a couple of concerns, however.

Content: If I owned pxleyes, I would want to advertise it with my logo, not random rainbow-colored text.

Composition: Having both the blimp and the bridge mid-ground is kind of boring, made more so when the blimp blocks the view of the bridge. Moving the blimp to the upper-right foreground (thus making the blimp much bigger) leaving 95% of the bridge visible would be more dramatic IMO.

Clients often want their logo redesigned, I've done many new and redesigned logos myself. I saw this as a new logo design. The name has a rainbow of colors which can be associated with a pixel image, the tag line is incorporated into the design. This makes for a totally new logo concept and works well because of the high visibility. The overall image has the feel of a random snapshot which adds to the believability of the entry IMHO. Very nicely done author!

Thank you spaceranger, for recognizing this image being exactly as I intended it to be. A randomly taken photograph of an eye catching new logo design.

DanLungberger, if I had of placed the blimp high and to the right i suppose the drama factor would have been high. It would have placed the blimp and the aircraft this picture was taken from on a collision course.

My two cents: nice work, my eye is disturbed by the fact that the blimp seems to line up with the bridge in such a way that, at first glance, it almost looks as if it's part of it.
