Very nice. Just a tiny bit oof. The stockings add a lot, but should have taken off the thumb ring.

Looks right to me! The only thing I'd say is wrong (and I don't think really matters, but if I don't say it someone else will) is the woman's hair style, it's a bit too modern in my opinion, but I might be wrong.

I'm not sure if this qualifies as film noir or not (although I'm sure kyricom or Ade will let us know ) But it's a damn fine photo that's for sure!

Just fantastic...well done

spectacular usage of stock and converting to make it your own.. beautiful work.. excellent sbs!!!

This is cool! Nice 1! Good capture and GL!

Very good!

I like it

gud luck ........

You shouldn't have cropped the top off.

nice shot ........ beautiful .......

Cup could be intact, many people throw it that way (it's desgusting to see trash in any place than trash can...) Very well done, gl!

nice work and a beautiful entry........... but i dont feel the ant's are in a picnic mood .............. all the best to u...........

Getting better! You could blur the rain in front of the fallen tree even more. If you see how blurred the tree is and considering the rain is in front of the tree it should be blurred as much as the tree or even more. But it's a cool scene anyway!

Nice mood! Just a few suggestions; Blur the insect on the right above the tree to create a nice depth. The insect will look like its more in front. (you could also do that to the insect on the left) Also blur the rain drops that are in front of the fallen tree, because they are even closer then the tree itself they should be blurred at least that much. Brighten the upper part of the cup a lot and darken the lower part more because there is stronger light coming into the scene. Good luck!

Congrats!!!

Nicely done, great portrait

nice angle !

Great photo The angle + broken glass makes it more intense.

no probs ade.. we can clarify our doubts..

I guess those are the dolls you create Very talented

beautiful work ............. all the best ...............

Nice 1!

and now I know!

And still the best entry in here.

Nice to finally meet you! Thanks for all the great comments over the past months...

a fair reply.......................I wasn't challenging the entry, just posing what I considered a valid question, as there are bound to be other similar entries in the contest.

hey ade.. I guess its on theme.. as its nowhere stated that the original object should be in white.. the desc says that white should be the main color of the picture..

great capture, but is it on topic..........you said the natural color of this plant is purple!!

Shrinking the mermaid a little and moving her to the right a bit (Rule of Thirds) might start to address CMYK46's and serialkiller's valid concerns. Looking at the hi-res: The rock she is sitting on is lacking crispness while (possibly as a result) her butt edge is too sharp. The reflection of the end of her tail should be of its bottom (and follow a shadow-like path), not of its top [3D versus 2D].

Beautiful photo!! That is Clematis blooms right? I so love them!! Best of Luck

Hi, there! Nice to meet you... very cute shot!

well HELLO you nice ta' see ya' darlin!

Beautiful entry

i love the setting

I think the lady should be darker because there is no sunlight there where she stands.

Figure should be farther back in the water to better show her reflection.

Great job love the blending of the tail

beautiful

Very nice capture

very nice shot!!

Congrats for your second place, Dollmommy!

Fabulous! GL to you!

Very nice! GL!
