Work on the shadows, everything else is good.

Congrats!

thank you .. and to you on your entries.

Congrats.

Congratulations...

I like this one a lot. Keeping ideas and themes aside, simply for the near perfect finishing in technical terms. Everything looks believable. Nice work.

very nice work with the pot and the ground...it look very effective...but the bird is to flat...i don't know how u could change that but work a bit more on shading for better final score...gl author

Thanks erathion, I did big changes to my entry know and I do hope it's worth the effort.

Author, it's sad indeed to hear you have to leave an island paradise, but the light source on the trees is opposite the light on the pot. Best of luck to you!

I WANNA LIVE IN A POT!!!! dammit (and I'll fork over all the rent.. and the watering)

Just fix the light (flip the stuff in the pot) and it will be fine. Not so hard to do...

Fascinating creation!

love this !!

nice work author.. i agree with you as it's the oppositions of the lights that attracted me
and the idea you said about the microcosm made me love it more
gd luck

Surreal is one thing. Poor technical execution is another. This is a competition, and your concept is a good one, but the obvious light direction will hurt you more than help you, regardless your excuses to try to justify it.

Two suns would CLEARLY show two light directions on the subjects, NOT opposing light reflections on one object (the island AND the pot). Likewise, the sky would show two light sources...

As CMYK stated, it's easy enough to reverse the island to make it read better. To try to justify such a poor choice as "it's surreal" will probably cost you more points than you would have gained had you corrected it.

cute!

It's really nice manipulation I really like the work. Everything is nicely added but I'll have to agree with the light source on this. You still got plenty of time to fix it.

OK i 've fixed the probem of the light source on the trees, for sure it looks better now !
Thanks to CMYK46 and MossyB for their usefull advices

I would like to see SBS! =)

Great imaginary and fantastic final product...best of luck author

Nice Idea

Wow now that's surreal!!! Nice blending! Looks like a winner. GL!

Great, glad you cared enough to make the quick adjustment. It really polishes it and that little difference could have effected the wonderful work that you did . Good luck.

love to live there...

congrats for the 3rd place.., welldone
