| Did you mean "breaker", as in it's a creature that can break/disperse light? Other than the jagged lines on the arms, this is a great image. Very creative in concept and visually compelling. 9 |

Creating homo-sapiens as a mythical creature that has 'mystical' powers - gutsy. A very cool shot that invokes the idea of man holding the power to illuminate the night, to cast forth a rainbow from the breath of life, and to raise water in a forceful burst that is lovely in the colorful spray of blue droplets I see. I *love* the idea,, the mood, the creativity, and the capture with what might be very little post processing (I find that very impressive)! However, I just can't see Man as a 'creature' - yes, we could argue semantics in that man evolved from apes. To my mind I see this as a demigod or god and can't get past that imagery. I think you did a wonderfully effective job in creating the imagery of this being a god/demigod (and if ever a Mythical God/Goddess challenge came up I would vote this highly with full marks 8+), but just not a creature. Don't get me wrong, this is NOT a true DNMC but it does not fully capture the idea of creature - and it is more magical than mythical. For those reasons I can't give full marks but it is still above average.
Coming back to this....I just thought of the Titans but that again is a deity. Giants on the other hand are not. Hmmm, I *still* can't get past the imagery and feel that this is a magical deity (you did too good of a job on that!) - nothing in the composition gives me the indication of 'Giant'. |

| Not sure about the "mythical" aspect, but I do like it. Actually quite striking. Bumping you up to a 7. |

| Beautiful shot. Simple and effective, although a bit of a stretch for a "mythical creature". |
