Romantic... I could notice a small gleam on her finger... is it a propose?

yup.. thts what the title and idea says..

Hmm... you are in a romantic mood!!!

aah.. yea probably.. I'm in love with photoshop.. hehe..

The gleam on the finger is a great touch. The blur around the figures & the heart shaped balloon are distracting.

Nice one...gl author

cool

romantic mood!

this is nice good luck Author

Best of luck with this romantic entry.

Love it....i love how the hands are at the bottom rather than her legs...great!!

looks awsome author nice imagination. I love the colouring of the image as well

Color is better in step 7. No link to the splash or explanation in SBS?

Final result is too red...color matching step 7 would look better.. No link to the splash or explanation in SBS?

nie work GL

Very creative, maybe you could just reduce the red filter a little bit.

I agree with color suggestion.Its to much magenta color here.I like elbow drips very much.Maybe to add some lighting in the chandelier that would be cool.Good luck with this one author,this is very nice work.

that's very nice

splash are hand made with smudge ,clone ,dodge burn and pencil work,

and blur

Creative.

Lovely image, great thinking GL

Very cool !

haaaaaaaaah ooooooo eeeee.!!!!!

Cool image...

The hands are kinda creepy but very nice overall.

Super concept.Very clean work,all elements well blended.It's a pleasure,to see images like this one.

nice!

This is definitely my fav in this contest. Well done author! Good luck!

Your liquid effect looks really good

brilliant!

monty python inspired....

nice idea -- maybe a bit of noise on the feet to better blend in with the original photo

Thanks for the advice alan, added noise.

Still the feet doesnt match much with the photo but a good idea. If the lady on the chair would be looking downwards it would have been fantastic....

Went with your idea Govindrathod.....thanks.

ewwww and lo!

Wow...i am speechless...this is fabulous work...One of the best i ever seen...best wishes author

Super entry.Composition,characters,colors,dof-all looks great.

I think I know who did this one ;-p... this is just awesome work, I am looking for anything you have missed but It's all great (other than the fact that she would snap in half if her waist was that small )

Great work.....wish i was that frog!

w0w! brilliant work sweetheART ;D

good, very deep image, nice gl!

very good blending! a step by step would be nice though a few things i noticed looking at high res.. mask out the tree roots from the statue and i'd remove that little bush in the bottom right corner because it looks a little trasnparent

thanks elphico..ihave cleared those bush part and i have added the sbs..

Ummm...you may want to remove the American flag... Otherwise, this is good. Nice subtle humor, too.

nice image but the shadows of the pastor need more work.

very thought provoking image

thank u all

Thanks for what? You still haven't removed the American flag from your image. It kinda doesn't work with the whole Jesus thing, if you know what I mean...

really i dont understand cmyk

very nice workt author, just a quick question, is it a person who is next to the cross, if yes, his size is not right...please confirm

good blending, nice colours. lovely image. .. good work author.
