Sorry but I still believe this is "selective editing" and not editing the "whole image equally." (a.k.a. non selective editing). IMO

I m finished !! LOL !!

You better stop before it gets too juicy

Lookin like that, someone might wanna give her a good peeling !!

I'm sorry, but using selective tools like Dodge and Burn are not permitted. Perhaps you can reload the image prior to making those selective adjustment. I hope so.

She looks like she might be going to the local fruit stand to hang out with all the other ladies of the night !!! That might even be good for the country song contest !! ( LADY WITH THE TIGHT FITTIN SKIN)

OOO LA LA !!

Nice. The light on the pot is beautiful and right on theme. The image is almost dreamy. Well done

Great,great...GL

Wonderful

Lovely

Congrats on the second place Dimitris

Very well done.

Good composition! Is it a salt?

That's FANTASTIC

Congrats, nice entry.

Congrats!!

An intriguing space where I can still recognize the source despite all the chopping—kudos!.

I do feel the flatness of the image could be remedied by focusing on adjusting the uniform lighting. I would make the chandeliers the primary light sources, shadowing the outer edges.

There need to be tiny, dark shadows where the columns and planters touch the floor in order to ground them.

The planters need broader, slightly weaker shadows to recognize how much wider the upper portions of the planters are. Most disturbing are the planters' high horizon lines that don't match the lower horizon of all the other elements.

Awesome

Very impressive work. GL

Looks good, nice idea. Good luck!

Cute aliens. Would be good to blur the flames & make them less opaque...also maybe give the edges a yellow tinge as in your source pic.

inventive take from this source GREAT!

So much lovely work done here...too bad it will go unnoticed because of the lack of a dominant main subject.

I love your concept and you turn the sourceimage in several ones. Great, GL

Very imaginative, but the focus clarity of the image is too inconsistent to "read" smoothly to the eye, particularly the background behind the items in and on the water. Some selective blurring will help push the background down and make your focal point of the water stand out more. I would also slightly darken the background behind the ship sails to help them "pop" a bit more.

Also, since this is a "night" scene, you need to adjust colors. As a very old song used to sing "Red is black, and yellow, white..." At night, yellows are not yellow, and the green would be black...While there may be yellows, they would be from incandescent lights. Yours are giving a blue cast, making the color situation even more noticeable.

Interesting idea. The domes wouldn't have reflections, being behind the rocks, but the rocks would. The reflection of the creature's tail at left needs alignment, and IMO there would be some ripples around the objects in the water.

The soft lighting, DOF, and added pop of purple color, really make the kitten and his curiosity stand out. Beautifully done!

Would be better if the shadows matched the light source.

Love the time-warp effect. Cool world you've created here. Love the great contrast.

I like this effect of abandoned planet which is visited by ET's, like in a fiction movie...well, perhaps in some time will not a fiction. GL

The light makes the eyes very expressive... swetttttttttttttt composition. Here is also not easy to vote, all are lovely principally for me! GL

its not a baby. but cool pic

lovely, great setup and cute kitten

I like the effect but it looks rushed, There are floating artifacts left from the building and also towards the centre of the image there is a blurred section on guard rail (soft masked?) and a little white clipping on the furthest part.

Awesome

Like the stark & sketchy effect! Good imagination.

A very interesting concept, I like the DOF with the doors and light. GL

was trying to spot the hidden one out and spotted at the top of the roof

Very beautiful, but I agree with Friiskiwi. The doorway seems more the central point, than either of the doors off to the side.

Figures need shadows. The light source is obvious.

mystical shot

What beautiful composition! Great!

Congratulations on 1st place, A well constructed photo, as always.

I feel the door opening, not the door is the main focus in this photo. A different cropping would have made t more On theme, as far as I'm concerned.

the old leather, great composition

Very nice textures.

Just a great composition, congrats!

Congratulations on 1st place. a wonderful entry, love the setup.

knew it was you... very well done
