Peaches are very well made, and realistic looking. Can't say the same for the leaves. I'd suggest modeling them after a realistic leaf to keep your image consistent. GL author.

Great job author,good luck

Wow... Great work author..

Really Superb idea & Great Presentation

All the best author

Too much repetition and not much depth. Good idea otherwise...GL author.

Perfect, author!

Truly impressive work, author! Love it.

Fantastic scene author, great shapes and its obvious that u invest loads of work to create all this cool elements. I remember when i created one underwater scene i was not happy with it cause in my eyes it looked to flat, u don't have that problem cause u created very cool DOF but maybe u could same thing that i did and to see how it goes. I created one blue/green layer, changed opacity to overlay and played up with plastic wrap filter. At the end i liked result so much. Any how this is so cool image and i wish u best of luck author...

Very cool! The two magenta anemone-like things stand out too much, IMO, plus the two fish seem like perfect clones (which they are!). Shifting the eye of one of the fish would be more realistic.

Very nice work.

Congrats george on your 2nd place...

Wow! Congrats

congrats!

Congrats!! Nicely done!

I just love that man, sort of thinking "And I thought I had seen everithing...!!"

Much improved...GL author, nice thinking!

Much better this way, good entry author, GL!

Much improved author.. good LUCK!!! love that squiggly texture

Wondering why the one crossbar thingy is black...otherwise a good image, although I agree about the perspective issue.

Great colors and idea......not sure abouty the perspective of the saucer though.

.. loved this entry.. congrats.on third place )

congrats

Beautiful, good work.

Stunning flaming sky

Great emotional depth and feel to this one. Bravo!

Much improved except the angle of the tree shadow (good) is not matched by the angle of the cart shadow.

best entry in this contest!

Great entry, GL!

I really like this picture and your treatment. My only suggestion is that the shadow of the tree is a little too dark and I would use the size slider to make it a little more diffuse...oh and I might turn the shadow into a layer to manipulate/tweak it around a bit.

Again, excellent work. All the best!

Appealing orange scene. The extremely low sun on the horizon would seem to suggest much longer shadows, however, to the extent that the wagon should be just to the right side of the tree's shadow. And certainly the bed of the wagon would be shaded. (More shadows would add more drama. Also, with the low sun, I would experiment with slightly less saturation of the ground.)

like the colors............the sunrise gives a sense of hope in a bleak surrounding

lovely work great shadows and contrast between lights and dark.

nice

lovely

Fabulous, well blended fantastic pitoresque mood!
