A nice touch would have been a green orange but that's just IMO

Agrees with CMYK46. Shadow is not necessary but better luck next time.

DanLundberg made some good points.

Beautiful, stylish, very elegant looking... I think it is a perfect fit for my head he-he

cute concept

very neat idea

superb

It does look like a phony UFO photo which is the idea right?

If the notion is that the UFO caused the destruction, then the neatly cut tree stump doesn't fit. The shadows on the alien aren't consistent with those on the stump. The UFO seems tilted downward (vanishing point much too high for this Earthling's predisposition). The top edge of the UFO doesn't seem realistic because it's so strong.

Cool vantage point. I don't think the UFO undersides should not be so brightly lit, however, as I would expect them to be in shadow.

nice job

lol i like his expression good job !

nice idea

lovely, nice touch with the reflection, imo tones of images too jarring... well done

well done

well done but would the seam be on the inside too?

Very nice work...good luck author

very well done!!!!

lol, and a joke it is.

It's meant to be a joke, Barnacle.

I dunno if he'd need binoculars to see the craft.

Clever. I don't think you need the light glow from the 'foo cause it's broad daylight.

Yes, and the light is coming from the top-right...the makes the shadow correct, no?

LOL...the shadow is still wrong...look at the angle of the shadow on the man's hand.

Hmm better. Maybe try dodging and burning it a bit to make it look more like an orb, and maybe try cutting out a real pane of glass (if you can find a suitable one, of course) to use for the spacecraft. That should make it look pretty realistic if that's what you're aiming for. Also try a bit of guassian blur on the shadow. Shadows tend to be blurred more when they're more distant away from the object casting it.

Author, I meant the shadow is too small. Just get rid of it if you can't figure out how to do it right. According to the light source, it wouldn't be visible in the pic anyway. Look at the angle of the light on the man.

Haha very cute. I like the added humor with the binoculars and the craft size (it's good tiny!). My only complaint would be is that it's obviously fake, and the contest states to make it as realistic as possible. With a bit more work you could be able to achieve this (only if you want, of course), and you'd have a really clever entry.

it's EVE without a body ...hehehehe.. very cute entry

Cute. I personally think the big green glow and the white flare detract. The base flange needs more shadow to be consistent with the shadow on the globe.

Light source is from upper right, the round shadow wouldn't be there. It's too small anyway...

Great work! Very creative.

creepy... nice idea

nice and scraaaary....

Bravo! The feathers looks great...

Erika, I like this cat
