WOW... that is fantastic! Very intricate work with wonderful lighting/exposure etc.

Very creative! Nice idea

Man... looks like years of trouble ahead

Much nicer... GL

A huge school of Piranha coming straight for you! SWIM!!!!!

I agree about the surface. That's a good suggestion (also, I don't see any barracudas)

Very nice. Love the "foam/splashes"

Nice idea. Might want to reduce blues a little and increase brightness some.

Very touching. Unfortunately, it's EVERY year in the U.S.

Congrats on your 1st place!

This is really nice. Just out of curiosity... why not enter it in the "Water Droplet" theme?

Is that actually the "Jaws" from the sequel? That could make a fun chop

This could be a good one

Earth vs The Flying Saucers (Long live Ray Harryhausen!!!)

I'd rather chop it, than ride on it

Could make an army of them.

nice, crisp shot

My grandmother actually used one of those, although it wasn't rusty

I see anime hair

This could lead to some good chops

I see potential slime monsters

These could lead to some fun characters

That's a pretty nice set-up if that's your home. I'm jealous

That looks like some kind of alien plant, or something

Nice use of DOF. I do like the flower being de-centered, but agree with Artifakts that it's a little too far over

Nice lighting

WATER DROPLETS!!!!!!!

Very creative. I like it. Might have cropped just a bit from the top and the right

Very nice, but could use a little more room at the top

nice use of lighting. Very pretty... but... WATER DROPLETS!!!!!!

nice use of DOF

Pretty colors, but a little soft

Looks like the emoticon Cute

nice colors and DOF

WATER DROPLETS!!!!

"Run, run, run... just as fast as you can. You can't catch me, I'm the Gingerbread Man!"

nice job

Cool image. Like the "true" story

Pretty cool image. I like it

Good one (although just a touch overexposed at the top/left)

That is really nice, but that little girl is gigantic (for her age) compared to the door, bench etc.

Really, really nice. But I agree that the text isn't needed. The image states it for itself

Very nice. Even Santa is mechanizing

Very nice. I like that he's only on one little wheel.

Good use of the original source

Pretty nice, but it seems like only a tiny part is from the source

Good catch. A very different perspective

Very pretty. Wish I was on one of those boats

Very cool. Wish the sun wasn't quite so centered, but that's minor

Very pretty. Nice silhouettes
