Erm.... where is that pipe going?

Good job, it could be a little more atmospheric with a bit more fog.

Ahhh...hmmmm.... not sure where pipe is going, I was going to make some kind of tank on her back, but settled with this mystery,(food for thought) hehehe! I figured the fog is lifting and going away, hence the "new dawn" title.
But what's spilled from the bucket?

Great use of source & color.

brilliant fun! (not fun in the sense its very sad she has to wear a gas mask and she spilled her water) but still fun... GREAT JOB

Thanks Drivenslush, and thanks for the fave.

really like the DOF you have going on here between mask and background. Defo one of the top three!

Great work!!

Complimenti mio amico!!

Grazie ah tutti

Fave'd!!
You rocks!!!

Thanks Daniela.

Very nice!

its cool.. very well use of source.. but y the fore legs are crossed? was it deliberate or it happened..? I see in the source image that the horse is running but in your entry its still and that's y the legs are distracting.. or you can lift that leg a bit up like in this pic.. http://www.flickr.com/photos/mmmchoco/63394549/ then it'll be perfect..

just use warp and lift it backwards..

Looks quite nice! The horse is a little distorted (neck too short, butt a little big maybe) edges could use a little clean up. Of course that's MHO.

I forgot to add the shadowing of the leg, before I merged the horse together >< I'll see if I can't redo the horse, it took me a little while so I'll try to get it as best as I can before the contest ends. Thanks for all your nice comments

made some changes

I'm sure it means something to someone, but i really don;t understand what's going on! Good luck though

Should I lose the foreground man? Hmmm

Blur the foreground and sharpen the Halo planet... Will be clear than... Also If you can, use soft focus creatively to put more focus on that ring planet, just don't overdo it... Maybe add lights to the ring or perhaps not... Just a suggestion...

Edit: You can also tilt that apparatus in the top right corner of the image a few 10 degree upwards and pull it back a bit...

Also move the spaceman to the left and flip him horizontally if you want coz if you flip him you may have to adjust his lightning I guess...

That is sooooo nice!
