wonderful render of a shell --- colour, sand texture and the details of the surface are great. -- Only one point --- might look a bit more "photo realistic" if there was a portion of the work in sharper focus -- may be a great deal of work to do
Edit -- nice change now it has a more photo look with a focal point -- glad it was not too much work -- I think it has improved it

Now that's a big bug (Lobster) LOL

good idea -- check the shadow on the right hand sea lion

Willie Mosconi

Nice idea well done

-- PS welcome back wondered where you were hiding (LOL)

Amazing piece of work

Nice effect -- composition is very well done

like the look of this image very original use of macro

Wow -- great shot great focus and framing

Very nice shot-- nice exposure and framing

nice idea and very well done

nice work on the interior of the cups

nice idea -- the liquid coming over the spout looks a bit off but a nice job otherwise

nice choice of images with a great blend

Very nice lighting and blending

nice use of negative space and an great angle

WOW -- great work

cruel but fair ---LOL good one

solid piece of work -- very original use of the source

like the retro comic look funny as well --gd job

nice idea with a nice depth -- maybe a sharpen up the edges the overall look seems a bit too blurry (IMHO)

nice use of light -- did you use availble light or a flash?

nice blending and choice of sources

nicely done. Like the over aged look as well a the compsition

might look a bit better (IMHO) if you masked the colour adjustment so it only affected the water rather than the whole image

nice sources and blending --lighting is well controlled

nice work -- sort of a punk chess piece -- like the avatar by the way was a great magazine

great choice of images with very nice blending over all a great looking work
One slight thing maybe some sort of a texture on the umbrella maybe something like the brass or copper tank -- seem a bit to smooth as it is IMHO

Asleep at the Wheel ?? I'll be there for sure -- nice one by the way as well

very original idea and extremely well executed -- I too would like to see this in a colour version

Nice depth and construction of the jelly fish

nice job -- this is one I hope to try

Nice image -- looks great with the black on black --- good lighting

Nice work -- great blending
PS nice to see your work again

Congrats on the win -- nice effort on this one

High res would have been nice -- blending of the phone and the wood is hard to see with the grunge background and the single color. Try masking the wood over the phone then try various blending modes (a layer in overlay mode with a copy above in multiply is usually a good spot to start) Then play with the fill or opacity levels
PS . Look for a better wood source the one you have now is too blurry and will not blend as well as a sharper image -- good luck

creative use of the source -- nice work

cute puppy and nice choices of images -- given the window is behind your subject the shadows are going in the wrong direction. You may want need to rotate the flower as well as its shadow is also incorrect.

Lovely image -- great work on the lighting

Wow very realistic -- great job

very dreamy look -- very nice

old image or not it is very nicely composed

nice DOF -- pretty image

very orignal use of the source -- very nice

nice idea well done -- lighting around the head is well done

Very nice -- I can see why some are afraid of clowns LOL

nicely done -- great expressions

nice image -- good hand as well

Nice build but a bit too dark

nice idea -- the inside of the box needs some texture and or noise to look like real paper or card board
