It is a non-anonymous contest btw...cool image .

nice

Try to fix the reflection...

I really like what you've done with the flowers, and the shadows look very nice, but i agree with CMYK about the reflection, i don;t think it should be as blurry, and i also think it should be a bit more transparent. Other than that it's a nice, clean image. Good luck!

Ponti55... think OOF.. and then think WHY in the world would someone at my level do that.. wink wink nudge nudge.. thanks for the comment anyway (I do enjoy my petty tortures don't I)..hehehe

nice author... I suggest to add flower shadow , especially the blue one... just a suggest....

Nice colours!

nice color

Very nice! Very funny and very well done. Good luck!

hehehehe.. silly cute great tech work

Well, the splash is out of scale, but it's still funny!

Good expression for the monkey. Personally I wouldnt give the feathers a motion blur. Feathers have the ability to float calmly in the air. If you make them sharper, you (or at least I) see better that those are feathers. The way you put them in step 12 would work for me. For the rest, nice reconstruction from the source image, good job masking the monkey and well done result. Good luck!

hehehe... very cool author

Hilarious. I guess the duck didn't duck

I didn't understand the image until I read the comments, those feathers really aren't clear enough.

LOL cute!

Hahaha.

Congrats for your third place!

Congratulations for 3rd too.

Congrats!, 2nd and then 3rd

Congrats! This is hilarious!

Nice idea and good source choice, the step 3 of the SBS looks better for me, the final image is too bluish

I think the color cast is a matter of preference...either version could work for me...this one seems like early morning, the other mid-day. Good blend, author!

Nice. There's something grayish half transparent on the right edge under the bridge. Good luck.

Thanks for your keen eye Palaekman. Looks like a part of the original bridge that I didnt mask off right.

Nice result, I believe this. Good luck!

seems to me your blending skills are just fine good luck!

Where is this duck doing,, Looks like a fun place. Very good Gl
