Fix reflection with gradient adjustment layer, dark at bottom, lighter to top.
Nice idea to use the slender pendent branches of the the willow tree as a fashion model's hair. Some 'hair' shadows on the face would make it seem more like she's actually wearing the willow wig. The black left-side cheek edge is disconcerting because the 'hair' behind it isn't appropriately shaded [see your Pretty Girl source image]. I admit I don't get the point of the reflection other than as a manifestation of a (not unreasonable) concern that mere branches-as-hair might be insufficient content for a high-scoring entry.
DanLunberg... I was ok with your comments until ... manifestation of a (not unreasonable) concern.... blah blah blah high-scoring.... ha ha ha ha ... what a maifestation of trying to sound like a total DB comment... everything was good until that part... then you just sound like.... well a DB.... thanks man! Maybe I just wanted to see a girl with green hair and a reflection... and by the way if you make comments like this and then actually enter the same contest yourself... you are a real DB... and to be exact I have made 99 entries at pxleyes and more if you count photoshop talent... and this is the first I have done a direct reflection and still didn't get it right... (Thanks CMYK for helping without being sarcastic... and a total DB = Dumb Bunny) ha ha ---
..... bet you thought I was going to say Douche Bag.... lol...
Glad you realized I was only trying to help.
CMYK, your comments are always helpful and an inspiration to improve and get better. I made some reflections before, but not up close like that, and didn't realize they actually fade out as they get further away... I think the veterans on the site should make more tutorials or even think about putting out a book, like worth1000 did.... It may not get tooo many takers at first, but a good one starting as an Ebook on Amazon or something could get the foot in the door.... there is a lot of great talent on this site.... and yes (DanLundberg) you are one... sorry for busting your chops.... but uuuhhhmmmnnn that's what I do... lol... no hard feelings.
I love that you made this source into hair for this girl, nice idea. Good idea about the ebook, too, author.
Some members feel the need to use "ten-dollar words" to make themselves seem superior, when actually it accomplishes quite the opposite effect.
Nice chop; and I agree with CMYK about the reflection. And don't worry about the rest.
very cute entry author... reflections are time consuming.. here's a little hint that might help ... there's a great little tool by Flaming Pair called FLOOD TOOL.. it's free to try, and the more you play with it the more quickly you can learn to do reflections in a snap...(even if you don't buy it, you can use it and when you see how easy it makes reflections you may not need it at all)
Good luck author..
I have that flood filter, it's a lot of fun. Used it to 'flood my house' with water above the tires of my car, darkened the image, and sent it to family and friends for a little scare - lots of photoshop fun!
Thanks Drivenslush and Pearlie for the advice on the flood tool.... I will have to give a go around!
Truly appreciated!
