Dat's a lotta fun! Good luck and great composition.

Lookin' good!

Very fun and well put together, would love to see it blended like a renaissance piece.

Congrats on third!

well done George ..

Congrats!

Congrats!

Congrats George!!

Very nicely done and original thinking! Little dragon fits in well with the other sculptures. My only critique is that the edge where the sand meets the little dragon might be a little soft. If you look at the sculpture in the foreground the edges there are more distinct. Just a minor point, personally this is the entry I like most.

One, two, ready, go

Good job! Love it!

Congrats

Thanks my friend....

Congrats once again George, I really like this one!!

Beautiful... If it wasn't a seagull, I'd say it was the Holy Spirit.

Nice concept, for some reason the nest seems to be off perspective to me, the first thought i got was that i was really far away, then i noticed it was on the branch, maybe you should remove from of the intense light placed on the bottom part.

awesome entry!

I really like this but I have to agree with akassa the composition makes it look as if the branch is heading miles out to sea (unless thats the intention), maybe a little blur could be used on the parts of the image in the distance to bring the nest back.

thanks for the comments guys...

I have to disagree with the perspective issue. I think it depends on how you're looking at it... but I have made changes to the light on the bottom of the nest, and fixed a few issues with the actual nest re the placing i.e. the bottom left corner... was infront when it needed to be behind the branch...

as always your comments are much appreciated

very nice...

great job, love the color and the mood

very... very nice job. I realy like it ;D The color balance is perfect and it looks so mythical. Congrats!

Your light sources are all over the place. The bird is lit from the left, there is a sun on the right behind the rocks, the clouds are lit from above right, and the light rays coming from the nest aren't illuminating anything...Good concept, CLEAN lines, but you need to consolidate the lighting and make it consistent.

MossyB: I think you are getting your left to right mixed up... the rocks are lit from the left hand side with the shadows on the right hand side exiting the frame... the sun is highlighting the central part of the clouds, highlighting the left rim ... assuming the sun is slightly off to the left also... so the lighting direction with regards to the rocks is fine...
so based on the sun being on the high left it's safe to assume that there would be a light source illuminating the birds on the left... if you look at SBS I added light to the face side of the gull as light from the nest... the rocks needed no adjustment as the light from the nest is also on the right... and as for the nest not illuminating anything... its illuminating the branch the gull and the two gulls hovering above... please refer to the sbs guide... step 6 explains the gulls
