LOVE the hdr effect !!!! GL

I agree with Ria, the hdr effect is perfect!

Good work matching the HDR of the image to the other images.

love your choice of images.. Cool moo moo. I will send some of mine so he is not alone.

Cool

Love the smears on the handwriting.
The edges of the "Polaraoids" are a bit too rough and choppy, though. I'd make them clean and smoother, just to give it a bit more "real" feeling.
Nice job!

Thank you - I preferred them smooth too first time looking at it - I'll try sort it out - thanks for your help

No problem! Looks much better now!

I like the updating of the lame "vintage" [never happened!] Polaroids from the mandated tutorial. For a true Polaroid, the white border should be on the same plane as (be essentially part of) the image so the border shouldn't cast any shadow on the image. Also, Polaroids tended to be a bit washed out, i.e., low saturation, unlike here. I like the smeared handwriting but I don't get the light-leak hot spots, especially their encroachment on the non-photosensitive border.

so cute & lovely couple!

Nice entry.

Good setting, but there is a light spot above the boy's head, which makes it look like steam rising from his hat.

the couple should look distressed (not happy).... perhaps add tears spurting out of the lady?

very nice entry....GL!!

nice build of the tandem bike -- bile seems a too sharpe in focus especially where the bike and the concrete meet -- maybe a touch of blurr over the whole girl and bike or just where the two meet

The ants are all the same size, even though the landscape shows depth and distance. It gives this a really "cut and paste" effect, and doesn't look very alien, so much as ants walking around on a photo.

Perhaps varying the size and skewing the ants a bit, and adding a space ship into the image?

nice concept..!!
