nice job...good idea about the reflection, Kid

This is very well done, good job! I suggest putting some spark reflection on the ground.

Beautiful!

Great shot!

Nice idea.

It's the angle. Their circles. And I've never been there. GL!

Yes, it's true. I wrote it because I saw this : "Contest Moderator: circles, not ovals!!" ...

He could be playing texas holdem too

I agree with ade. This certainly looks like a circular ceiling to me. Nice find, author. I'm curious to see how this would look in black and white.

I think you might find that is because of the angle of shoot!

excellent replacement, well done.............g/l

Sorry, it's more an oval than a circle

No trouble author, there is often debate as to the suitability of an image, this new one is great, excellent work, good luck author.

great idea for a shot, shame that there isn't enough sharp focus on the boots whilst having enough focus on the far background (with the truck) to be distracting.

author, I have to agree, it does specify 'trade'........find a replacement shot for this, rather than removing it......

black jack! good one

I think he is doing a great job, he is working hard, and yes, I love the dog's expression

great shot

Just replace it if you can. You can edit your entries going to my stuff/my contests and edit entry. If the Mods remove it you can't re-enter.

I hate to be a stickler for guidelines but I really don't think this is on theme. Reason being, I did specify a trade and gave examples and well, this is cute and all but there's not really a trade of any sort being seen here.

Nice shot!

nice shot

not sure this is a "plain" background, i would say off theme. no scene. "minimal number of objects creating a scene"

nice closeup, but i dont think it "creates a scene" so - off theme

Nice job, I did something very similar a while back so I know your frustrations! My only suggestion is to level the shot out, that would help it a lot. Best of luck to you.

Is that..... is that a dogat? or a catog? either way... its nasty... thats for sure!!! LOL... Great work Author!!!

it`s not ugly! it`s just funny

WOW

this does have something about it, it is just adorable and yet still so very ugly...i think you should be a fashion designer lol... good job!!!

I like it. Really funny. Though you should get rid of the fish in the glass. You wouldn't be able to see it if it were in the bubbles. Perhaps add a more-faint shadow of it on the left side of the glass where the light would shine through

Wait, were those fish in the bottom there a couple of minutes ago? I didn't see it the first time. I love that!

Now as far as this entry, your blending is pretty good. The concept is excellent. I think that the bear is a little blurry but it's hard to tell. Please upload a high resolution of this so that it can be better judged. You also need to post a link to where you got the pic of the bear.

what is that? yep downoffthedragon is right! i learned that my first couple of weeks too

There are soooooo many resources out there for you to learn PS. Free ones, too. This website is GREAT. I have learned so much in the few weeks I have been here. The most important thing I've learned competing here is to really pay attention to the details. If you piss your way through a project they will call you out on it. It makes you want to try harder. Also, if you are having trouble making a concept work, often there are people here who will give you pointers.

lol great blending author

ha ha very funy, good work on this one.

Awesome job!

He does look like one of those dogs that are so ugly that you love them just because if you didn't, you'd feel bad because if you didn't you'd feel bad because you think that you didn't love them because they're ugly. So you just love them on principle. Or, wait. Am I thinking about people? Hi marks just becaus I think that I just hurt my brain thinking about it.

Please post your uncut pics in SBS.

Nice one!

HE's NOT UGLY.. HE's ADORABLE!!!!!.. hehehe.. (high Marks) really is cute
