cool..... like the glowing.... good luck author!

interesting piece...gl

The "dead" fairy lays pretty ok there (no pun intended), but if possible I'd replace the standing fairy for one that match better with the jar's perspective. Good luck!

Nice job!

Unique idea! GL!

Or change it into a hot chocolate cup!

edges are good improvement colour of the tea is still a bit odd. I found playing with this image that using comibination of Curves & Hue and saturation layer set to a hard light mode I was able to get a more tea like appearnce to the water

Nice agree with alan about the color, it could use some contrast. Cool so far good luck author.

great

nice idea -- the edges of the water (tea) are too smooth the waves and ripples should disrupt the edge -- the colour of the tea seem a bit off (Maybe because it don't take cream) IMHO it would be a better effect if the colour was more tea like

very nice

Clever!

nice..

Beautiful!

Excellent thinking!

Wow!

Good work! The tutorial you mentioned is interesting. I'll try it some day... Good luck!

creepy! but neat

I agree fix those things it would make look better...good luck

Lips need texture too...

the puppet was an INCREDIBLE fine author... good luck (really love the mood)

nice image.gl

Congrats!!

Congrats!

congrats!!

Congratulations for 2nd

Congrats for your second place!

Good idea....source fits in perfect

you did a great job fixing stuff, but what happened to the snow on the trees---it's gone now?

I agree about the snowman but my question is about the lanes....in the reflection it is just a two lane road...in the rest of the picture, it is like a highway with a median in the middle--so it kinda doesn't match

The snowman needs dome dynamic to create the moviment feeling. Nice work.

Great idea, and well executed.. maybe suggest the sky on your background image with the one form the source, to help it look like it matches. And also if you look closely there's a slight blue color cast. I suggest opening the source image in photoshop and duplicating it, then going to Filter -> Blur -> Average. This gives you the overall colour of your image, then just copy that into your finished image and set the mode to colour or soft light and play around with the opacity. But like i said, great idea, and a very convincing image.

Very nice image... I think the snow man looks good if you are looking at it while driving, but if the concept is to look in the mirror the snowman should be blurred. I think that is what Marcia saw looking back and forth from snowman to mirror to snowman.... You can't see 2 things clearly at the same time.. Great entry and g/l

very nice, well done!

Very nice. But the snowman doesn't fit completely. I don't know exactly what it is. Or the shadows or it misses some motion (like the road)

Overall really nice source selection. Really like how you kept the part of the car in the reflection.

looks real

very nice...I find the maiden in the tower very fair

really nice

I think the hand has been burned a little too much

good work

Yep, good job. I'd sliiiightly calm the yellow in the girl - overall imperssion is tha she just doesn't belong there - looks like she is taken from some sunny place and chunked onto this cloudy scenery. Just love the rest, apart from the blur tool on the castle and the grass in front of the girl's dress..). I hope u don't think that I dislike ur entry - on the contrary, otherwise I wouldn't have cared to write all this

Just a wonderful image all around... the dress is EXTREMELY powerful.. good thing the castle is higher to pull the eye away from her.. hehehe.. good luck author.. very nice work

Nice application.

nice
