coolness

Very nice in HR, you can see the detail of the floor = )

Great image author,i like colors and mood very much...good luck

thanks a lot friends( tuckinator,emik and erathion).......i added the sbs also......

Nice mood! GL

You should rethink her shadow, as the light source seem to be on upper left corner according the rock(s). The shadow is a tiny bit too strong anyways. Nice colours and mood here.

cooooooolness

Angel's image is a bit distorted. When you resize an image, do it pressing shift key, so the image doesn't distort.

thanks,erikuri..

its real cool just a little unreal

The inner part of the boat shouldn't be completely black, rather the same material with a gradient shading.. Still, good mood, and you only used the source to make the background (which looks great)

Good luck and well done

I really liked this.. this got something in it.. love the mood..

in my opinion
the shadow is wrong and the guy seems kind of floating..but its very nice overall...good luck author

edit:

I see what you mean with the guy floating, gonna go try to fix it, thanks, and iquraishi thank you as well.

I fixed the shadow a bit, connecting it more to the feet, hope that's better.

Very nice composition from such a simple elements. Seems to be rooted now and looks good.

Ty guys.

that person looks creepy... awesome!

author you can try giving a little bit of burn to ground where the mans feet touches it.. it'll make it look as if the man is standing on the ground.. a kind of pressure from his weight on the ground.. generally the shadow will be a bit dark where two things touch.. I hope you got my point..

Really sad. It seems an alien, a lost alien - or maybe he fell in love with a terrestrian girl and knows that this love is impossible!

This is such a compelling piece. The color, light, figure, texture. Even though there is a creepiness (to me) to it, the atmosphere you created is strong and truly speaks of loneliness. Very strong work.

Enchanting image less is defiantly more with this image, speak volumes good work author!!

Like the overall old-image effect. Btw, is that an alien? :P gl

Thanks a lot everyone. I really do appreciate all the tips, and comments. This lonely man was not meant to look like an alien. Check out the sources to see what it is =) But you may think of him in anyway you like. I'm sure there is an alien out there that's lonely too.

Very nice work author . Looks great

Amazing work author,its very sad and hits 110% theme of the contest.To me he look like a man who survived the holocaust...Colors fits perfectly,mood is fabulous...well done

this is the 1 image so far that makes me think lonely well done author.

This IS lonliness.

Excellent!!!

I like this, great mood

Nice mood! The source looks like chocolate The man's shadow looks a wrong. The light is coming from the back, the shadow should be almost vertical under the man. At least that's how it feels to me. Good luck!

Thank you for all the nice comments. As for the shadow, I know it's a little bit off, but if you look at the original source image the light is coming from his right. Although it does look like it's coming from the top after I cropped it. I will have to keep that in mind next time =)

Very nice portrayal. GL!

gud work author.. but small doubt..
there is not light na...
but there is light shadow how it's possible....?

Really nice mysterious entry author. It really makes you wonder what the story behind this picture is. Good luck!

Good mood, but the glow on the ceiling is distracting, as there is no light source for it.

Yep, the ceiling glow is the only thing to be fixed! Very nice, GL...

Sends a shiver down my spine……great work! Atmospherics are first class just need to remove the glow from the ceiling it is distracting

Thanks for the feedback! Image updated.
