Wow, cool image! That pose is awesome for this shot! Your editing is wonderful. I love the saturation in these shots. Your greens are just so alive and vibrant, yet not anywhere close to being too much, and so fitting for the fantasy theme. I could see trying just a real light gaussian blur, like a soft focus effect, to see if it gives even more of a dreamy feel. Great photo.

Oh, gorgeous! She is beautiful, and really fits for the shot. Yeah, with the heavy NI and all, it does kind of look very processed, but...for me anyways, it actually works quite well for what is a fantasy image. Very fitting, and looks great. Awesome job with the makeup and ear. Great pose. Lovely photo.

I find this to be a really stunning image. Just gorgeous! One thing that is definitely really cool to me is, that it is kind of breaking a couple 'rules', but in a way that works wonderfully here, and I love it when people do that. First, she is looking off the frame she is close to, but it works here, it leaves me sorely wishing I was there with her, soaking in the full beauty of this place. Second, there are these dark areas, so dark that there is no detail, just blackness, but man, the black is in just all the right places, and makes the girl, the water, the greens and the rocks really, really pop out! It all comes together in just a beautiful, flowing composition. Your processing is lovely, I quite like it. On the verge it would seem of appearing 'heavy handed' to some tastes maybe, but to me, it feels very tasteful, and comes across as a style, that looks great, and not at all 'overdone'. I think the saturation is wonderful. The greens, and the hues of the rocks really punch through, and look great. The girl does have a wonderful 'glow'. The image does have a fantasy feel for sure. You definitely deserve, and should be very proud of this photo. I love it. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful masterpiece. :-)

Very cool image. I like the unique crop, makes for an engaging composition. I really like how the light in the clouds trails off to the left, it really makes the negative space out there work for the composition. Nice job.

A great shot here. He stands out very well, and I really like his 'pose'. The background works really well. Nice job.

A very interesting concept. I actually quite like the idea. Something just seems not quite right, though. Perhaps just a little more light? I think that it is lacking some definition, that could help tie the concept. Also, and I'm not sure why, but maybe a different color flower. The orange just doesn't seem right. Maybe even a white flower, with it's symbology could be interesting. Perhaps a tighter framing at bottom could be nice? All in all, an interesting and intriguing concept in the shot. I think it would be worth exploring further. :-)

Very nice model. Great pose, very interesting and I like it. A good use of the scarf, or whatever the yellow material is. Good composition, and nice warm light. Nice job on the dof, the background is shallow enough to make the model stand out, yet enough is there to give the 'context' to the scene. It works well. The black suit, to me almost seems too dark? What I mean is, I'm wondering if perhaps just a very slight tweaking with either levels or curves might bring out a touch more detail, or form in the blackness. This is a minor thing though, overall, this is a very nice shot. Great job :-)

Wowsers!!! This is an awesome shot! I love good abstracts, and this one is way, way cool. Where to start? First off, I love the 'moment' of clarity in the reflection of the trees. There is great motion, and flow in the shot, it just is leading my eye all around the image, soaking it all in, but never leaves. And a really cool thing, the opposing shapes and lines, as well as the competing warm tones and cool tones create a great feel of 'tension' in the shot. All things that make for a great abstract. This photo is just extremely dynamic and engaging, I really like it. Great job!
