I can tell a lot of work went into this. Nice job, author...you wasted absolutely no possible usage for this source.

Thanks CMYK46.

I agree, this is a very creative concept. I always enjoy split personalities.

nice work

Very very creative!

it is nice work, but you seem to loose the original source in it. i think it could use more highlight in it as well.

What a lovely fantasy image! And i'll bet you i know who made it!

This is truly magical, very nice

Lovely image overall -- blending of the feet and the grass is very nice -- Maybe a little touch up on the masking\blending of the cross bar at the tulip stems
Much Better

Thanks a lot Matteo and Raketman

And of course thanks to you too, Alan! The blending really wasn't good
I've changed it and hope it's better now

Very cute. The intense colors fit the fantastical environment. I like the addition of the bear to give the girl something to be looking at and then linking it to the source pic by giving it a heart-shaped tulip (a bit too cutesy for me when the adolescent tulip in the source is charming enough IMO). I might add a tad more burning where the cross bar meets the stems to make it look more constructed than natural (perhaps a different viewpoint from Alan2641's). I'm not a big fan of perfect symmetry: Only manufactured swing brackets would be expected to be identical. [At least horizontal flip the right one.] The big tulips' petals are different, yet their leaves are the same.

This is a beaut!! I knew who it was the moment I saw it. More inspirations lately, huh? Nice job, author! Perhaps more contrast and color/saturation would really enhance the girl's presence as being part of her environment. Nice to see more of your work showing here.

I like it all, great job, creative.

Beautiful and colorful image. Cute entry

Thank you all very much for your nice comments

The girl has more contrast, one of the leaves on top of the swing is mirrored and the crossbar is a bit burned.
I left the leaves on the flowers how they were, because I tried to make them look different, but wasn't satisfied with the result.
Thanks a lot for your suggestions, Rob and Dan!

I love the grass effect..

Watch out kid... the chain is gon..a.a.... slip down............ ( Fantastic and lovely work Author... GL)
