Wow...beautiful image and amazing mood. High marks for this...
Just one suggestion--dunno if the top-left edges of the man can be made to look more realistic. In high-res, the hair looks a bit jagged and it's like there's still a bit of an outline around him.

Very nice mood, good composition! I agree with gamemastertips a little clean up would be good but still a really nice image!

cool one

Very good, cool image! I like the mood, it transmits a kind of fear, dispair.

Fabulous entry author...well done
edit:i am note sure for the position of the shadow,u have light left of him,but watching your image very closely his back could not be lighted this way with shadow like this...gl

this is great

coool man . good luck

Wow...you did an excellent job on the hair. Thumbs up!! The body still has a bit of a black haze, unless that's on purpose. In that case, you're good to go. And God bless you too, author...been awhile since I heard that.

I would've been cool if you had made the rocket from the tower which was already there. Nice entry and good luck!

Author, Chalty had a good idea...it's not too late!
PS: The reflection would be foreshortened a bit.

Nice idea. And also agree with both.

The shadows are way too dark. Also the perspective of them (especially the left side) is way off, they're cast on the ground as there are no obstacles, so it shouldn't cover things from the hills.. Now it looks like the shadow is both out of perspective and also miles long.. Scale them smaller and use the perspective tool

are those shadows or silhouettes? either way, they don't really work with this lighting

the shadows need some work. the shadow from the clown in back is across the one in fronts head. and the legs on the shadows are off. as with the umbrella. the car in back may be a bit big. good luck. i like that the clowns are looking the same way as the people, like there is something over there.

Perspectives are way off. The cars are huge.

Like the concept, the filling up of the empty space, the colorfulness. But I have to agree with the previous comments.

Ok guys Thanks here's a remake any better?

I think the balloon strings are too thick. Try to make them using pen tool (2 or 3 pxl) and draw them stretched.

erikuri Thanks I guess it don't pay to hurry I should have seen that...lol Thanks

Author i think apply guassian blur to shadows

pretty much what every one else said

Thanks mounirupa but I had guassisn bur at 8 as you saw it. I just added 3 more over that maybe becuse of size not sure. Hows this now/

i guess it must be a mega bird!

I'm not sure if the bird was necessary either but I think this that the final result is best so far! I hoped that someone would cover the street with water and this is a very neat chop!
A more dramatic sky would definitely add more charm to it so i'll hold my vote until the end but I do like this!

I like it, it shows a nice boat ride.

Nice work on the reflections. Well done!

very nice ! g l

nice work...gl

Tower reflection is out of place (should be beneath original) but otherwise looks good.

@CMKY46, fixed the tower reflection.. thanks!

No, you didn't. See the other reflections and how they're directly below the objects they reflect? The tower reflection needs to move to the right.

@CMKY46.... (*as i facepalm myself*)... I thought you were tallking about the white and red tower down the river (which was off and I fixed)... I didn't even notice the big tower to the left was off too, lol. I will fix it this time... Thanks!

Edit: correct reflection fixed.

perfect

Congratulations!

Congrats!

congrats

Congratulation...!!!

Congrats!!

ahhaahah i like it

nice...but the spectators were so near.........lol

All the vehicles look to small compared to the people.

How can you see a blue sky and hills in the hole in the road?

i think you are the only one who is seeing hills and sky in the hole if you see the source i hafe done nothing with that keep waching and i think that the vehicels are fine if you compare them whit the police bikes thanks

The first truck is the same size as the people, it should be much bigger. all that happening and the people are looking elsewhere. where did you get the splash? the dust the first truck is by? and the smoke from the red one in the hole? an sbs would be great!

haha you poeple are some time vary funny smoke and splash are brushes

i only ask, not to be funny, but they have to be listed as sources too - wouldnt be funny if it got pulled on a technicality, most of us have had the heartbreak of having an entry pulled for these things. if you had an sbs all these "funny" questions would not be necessary.

yes i understand that butt all yhat happenning and the poeple are looking elsewhere is to much i think butt thank i fix them
