I manipulated the photograph as the background blur, you may be able to notice the constructions become trees, and that the statue's face is actually cracking away to reveal tree bark.
I then turned the image into an old vintage postcard that has been damaged.
Thanks for viewing! (5 years and 3040 days ago)
very beautiful!
Very nice work, it makes a cool postcard!
Thanks! Thought it might look better as a postcard
Not much use of the source image.
good blending author
Thanks kush,
Well I looked at a few entries for other contests which used less than 10% of the source image. If you view the SBS you can clearly see a large portion of the source image remains...
The contest source is your main focal point, and hasn't been CBR'd (Chopped Beyond Recognition) into some bird, or flower, or other object totally unrelated to what it was. You've kept it intact and enhanced it. That is an accomplishment in itself. That you did so in a believable manner makes it a good manipulation in my book...
Thanks MossyB
nice thaught author & good blendingbut not much use of the source image..
I'm confused by the amount of people mentioning the lack of the source image - when looking at other entries a very small portion of the source has been used or altered...
It is an amazing entry and you used the source as it is mentioned, very well done author and best of luck!
Thanks Joe
Congrats!!
