Great mood! Sometimes less is more and you've really grasped that. I love the atmosphere you've created.

I think the shadow cast by the woman needs to be much darker. I like the contrast in this image! Good luck author!

Floating island image #25, 361...

avatar madamemonty

Author, this is a very appealing image, but there is a bit of work you need to do. You have visible edges of some of your stock photos, it is particularly noticeable in the middle of you image under the mountain range. Also the farther floating island has a straight edge which looks a little odd, and in high res. there are some remnants of that photo edge in the sky. Good luck.

Well blended. Maybe a bit more shadowing as it doesn't look quite grounded enough.

Nice. Just one thing: you forgot to cut off the part between its legs, actually background must appear through it.

Not bad I'd suggest you to change the orientation of the butterfly; make it look more like its flying and not just pasted into mid-air. You did a nice job other that that GL!

Really like this author! All things considered above from other members...they are great observations...but I personally like it the way it is. Some of the elements that are deemed to be 'fixed'...are just the things that make this image kind of charming and sweet. I could see this being used as a CD cover...for a female artist. Love the expression of the gal.

the muted colors can be fine for the image, but as CMYK mentioned it loses depth with the lack of color. You can add the depth back in by shading your more distant objects as well as making them less in focus, this will bring your eyes to the more clear focal point and create the illusion of depth in the back. Good Luck!

I'm torn about the sepia tone effect. It's an interesting approach, but loses the illusion of depth that some color could provide. Over all I like your image, but why not just use a pic of Saturn if you wanted rings?

I love the idea well done. I think maybe if the edges of the moon were sharper and the edges of the bushes were a little softer it would be a little better
Good luck

what a lovely image! so cute! And a good job on the fur too, the only thing i would change is to add some more smudgings with a much finer brush so the hairs are hairs and not pointy spike hair like the cat got a pot wax in it Im also not sure if i would have put a shading THAT strong. Good job on the glass, the cat really look like its behind it

its a really cute entry but your squirels are floating maybe thats the feeling of love however but if you place the shadow/reflection closer to them then you might see that they are landing again The glitter was a really cute effect that you added to the image, makes it a little magical. The fur of the animals could use a very small brush with smudge strokes to redraw the hairs a bit to get rid of the "animal hit by a grasmower"effect. I be holding of my vote for now because I think this entry has a lot of potential.

what a lovely setting, you have somewhat mixed up the sources (1 &2) but they are all there, i think the starry background is a bit too busy . its nice work you did and with just this small minor detail fixed i think u can get the max out of it.

avatar tnaylor21286

Much better! IMO

Edit: Maybe blur the girls on the third cloud back. They look a little crisp, almost as crisp as the kid in the foreground IMO. I know I'm probably being annoying author but I'm just trying to help Good luck!

Maybe use different kids on every mint so there is some variation? just my opinion. Good luck author!

Great entry. IMHO the bottom of the "main mint" is not much credible. If you wanted to merge it with the clouds you should put near clouds between the mint and the camera (or just a little fog with a smooth brush). Anyway, great entry, good luck!
