If u watch the High res, u can easily see the copy-paste trees and skies.. If i may suggest finding another sky pic, Doesn't look very good: My opinion.. And .. You could easily see the copy-paste boats.. maybe change something or remove one of them.. still some work to do, but gl author.

There is a bad edge on everything green in this entry. Is there no back on the boat ? seem like the water is just rushing in lol. Not bad beginner entry.

Yes the detail is lacking, I produced this quickie on my mini laptop in my lunch break so the small screen didnt help....If I move up the ranks a little I hope I wont be making obvious mistakes but at the moment I am simply a beginner trying to compete with the big boys lol

we live in hope.

Definitely should have used a different sky but kudos to you to just whipping it out on your lunch break.

whipping what out ? :P

Nice.

You need to work more on the witch cutout. Also consider putting a color overlay over the complete image to help marry the colors together.

agree with solkee,,GL Author

awesome works!!

Looks pretty cool. The arm doesnt blend well with the water and there wouldnt be a shadow in rough water. Good luck

erase around the hand a little more, there are some 'halos' and I agree about the shadow, maybe try to blur it a little. This is a nice image, tho, the colors, moon and birds are a nice improvement over the original.

cool

Bird in hand would seem a lot smaller...

nice ideea. GL

Cool!!!

give a depth of field

i love it

Fix the vertical line at the peak, and blur the background a bit...

Thank you both

its actually a rather beautiful image to look at. Great work author, i think the clouds are brilliant too

Great use of the source,very creative idea... for the great mood!

Beautiful.

Nice coloring, and nice use of source. I would have liked to see the clouds not stop so abruptly it makes the composition just the smallest bit off, but very pretty.

Thanks for all the comments so far, and fair point annabat. Unfortunately don't think I,ve got time to add extra clouds.

Amazing...
