Nice work, quite surrealistic . I suggest to make the water surface around her to be more consistent in sharpness, look like the water in front and behind her are not continuous. Also, seems like you used only ONE WORD for searching in Flickr, but the contest rule mentioned that you have to use TWO WORDS.

I've used two words: the word "dark" and the word "girls".

I am going to sharp a little bit more the water and see how it turns out...
Thanks a lot.

cool one author!

Our mind can play a trick on ourselves! Nice entry, I like the colors.

congratulations.... well done !!!

Thank you, guys!

Fantastic work author...best of luck

Total destruction, a tsunami... But I'd remove the boat, and let the surfer with the board.

thats quite an entry

i agree with erikuri

nice effects author, gud luck!

very good effort. Well done. Think the boat adds impact to the picture personally. However I think the boardroom has got a bit lost.

Thank you for all your comments. I decided the boat had more impact than the surf board, although Surf board would have been more appropriate landing on a boardroom table!

Nice one

Source links?
Edit: Links added.

interesting idea but I do believe a bit more work could have been done on blending the shark to make it look like it belonged. A high res and sbs would have been helpful. Idea was sound but execution needed a bit of work!!

nice attempt......... GL ........

thanks to NoShoes for his pic of the ladybug

This is just amazing...

great idea for this - very cute, nice coloring on the jeans.

Very... fresh!

absolutely wonderful!

very beautiful work ...........gud luck to u...........

Very very interesting, wish you had an SBS though.

::: wonderful, except the wrong shadow from the flower ... the sun is oposite...

AWESOME!

Very nice.....

thanks to all for your comments

Great!

C'mon.....no sbs... would love to see some of the techniques you used in creating this one.....good luck!!

:P i would have loved to see an sbs as well. you can tell by the picture that there is alot of work going on here we don't see, and its definately not a beginners entry.
its awesome. but... i still think it needs an sbs.

Dear dollmommy and jadedink, i cannot show you a sbs because i hadn't keep all the picture to doing this one and my english is too poor to explain myself so i gon on in french : au niveau du ventre j'ai travaillé avec la texture du gazon que j'ai passé en filtre produit et puis j'ai joué avec le seuil, les niveaux et pour le jean la balance des couleurs en ce qui concerne la fleur je n'ai séléctionné que la moitié et j'ai effectué une symetrie horizontale et redesiiné une parite de la feuille de droite et pour finir j'ai utilisé l'outils densité plus et moins pour mettre du relief. Ok next time to make an sbs. Thanks for your comment.

ROUGH TRANSLATION = at the level of the stomach I worked with the texture of the lawn using a filter then I played with the threshold, and the levels..... and for the jeans balanced its colors, in the matter of the flower I have selected only half and I carried out a horizontal swap and copied the right leaf and to finish I used the tools density more and less to put relief...... Geexman: wish I had someone so coool to help me beat the system! hehe ( it was a ROUGH translation though)

Thank you very much Geexman you are absoluly cool )

Clever.
