Genius!!!!! Who would have ever thought that someone with a 7.5 score would not be a ribbon winner! With 51 10's (one of which was mine).
What an incredible flawless creation! Congratulations! ! ! ! !

Congrats on your high score... this is really amazing. I have seen this effect before but you have made an excellent example here.
I find it difficult to through the shackles of DPC off for a challenge... but you have obviously not had that problem. Excellent work and fav (so I can find the photo again to show colleagues and friends who will love this!) |

Very nice as a piece of artwork. But I'm not sure about it as "photo." One of the things the SC encouraged us to do was to vote down things that didn't retain a photographic feel. So I've struggled all week with this one and the other entry that uses a round motif.
This one feels less like a photo to me than the other one, but the sky plays a much more important role here. I was originally voting a 5, but I'll bump up a point to 6. I realize that's not much, but maybe it'll make a difference in the final ranking.
I'd definitely suggest selling this as a really nice piece of art, though! That's why I'm adding it to my favorites. |

| All I keep thinking is "The Little Prince," one of my favorite books. I even have a quote in my sig line. I'm not looking at this as a photograph, but rather a piece of art - of what its made is of no consequence. I'd love to see the original image, if only to see the inspiration for a wonderful piece - you've done excellent work here. Good luck in the challenge. 10 and a fav and a wish list. you are making a print, yes? |

12/15/2006 06:51:41 PM |
| To me, this is more digital art than photography. While I love it and would give it a 10 in a digital art contest, I think the intent of the rules is to have the result still look like a photo. For that reason, my final score is an 8. |

12/15/2006 05:22:46 PM |
| well THIS is a ribbon. I was getting sceptical of the use of the new expert editing...until I saw this. I've seen you do this before, in a thread I think, but I can't remember your name. I honestly can't find much wrong with this, maybe make the sky a little bluer, but that would take away from the "world", but all in all the tonality is perfect. Fav + 10. |
