 ####Thanks for the wonderful comments - I've never had so many!!
Okay so this isnt your everyday pretty picture but I was pleased with it apart from the processing which could have been less rushed. My monitor isnt calibrated properly so some poeple picked up on yello splodges which arent visible to me.
Thanks for the input kinf folk######

this was loaded with potential. a little more attention to detail, and it could have gone quite a bit further. yes, you can clone in advanced, and with that, you could have cleaned up the background. not quite sure how you processed it, but some of the edges seem a little rough (possibly due to your masked edits). very creative, keep it up!

Really nothing I don't like about this shot ;-)

Absolutely love the PoV. Glad I ran across this.

Note to self: must get wide angle lens.

This was and is a heck of a jolt and a shot too. Nice work. Not sure why, I usually find your style appealing. I failed to comment at the time but voted a 7. Keep up this inspiring work. Getting comments feels better almost than votes, right!

Certainly a most unusual perspective.
Either that, or she has really big shoes.....

LOL - I love the perspective :-) I might have cropped so the heal is closer to the left bottom corner but works great.
