41 Dec 22 Comment love this, makes me smile

Things to improve
-- the red car does distract (but as I read the kids want it there, so you might need two versions one to print for them and one to compete)
-- the faces/skin toines do not fit thwarm tones of the rest of the scene, ajustment photo filter, warming, then apply it via the mask on on their faces
-- the boys feet appear floating, need some drop shadows.
-- the laser of the right boy merges with the other boys head

but those are small things and overall the images is magical!		 Dec 23rd
41 Dec 22 Comment I love the cat and the one lit window. The road leading up to the house is wonderful. The BW going works well with good dynamic range.

As mentioned, the buttons are distracting. I would also darken the sky, as our eyes are drawn to the brightest area

41 Dec 22 Comment I love ICM and this is very well done! The two figures are intriguing and I love the top and the blue. Personally I would try cropping the very bottom light cream off so the blue anchors them.
This says whimsy and ghost and love and mystical.		 Dec 22nd
41 Dec 22 Comment This is well done. I love ICM and the curves here and the colors and tones are exquisite.

I love it, the only thing I can think of to improve is the bottom square is very close to the edge of the frame, try moving it up a tad.

41 Dec 22 Comment I love the symbolism! The composite is well done and the story telling works well. I loved reading Brian's and the other commentary.

Drop shadows are great.

"You can remove a Drop Shadow layer style from your current layer and have it appear on its own separate layer (so you can edit it on its own, erase parts of it, etc.) by going under the Layer menu, under Layer Style, and choosing Create Layer. Now the drop shadow is no longer attached to the layer-it's on its own separate layer directly below the original layer (as seen above left). They're no longer linked together in any way, so you can treat it as a completely separate layer."

To improve: A little shadow is needed under the left right leg, and mask out a little more or use the mixer brush on the tail.

44 Dec 22 Reply Thank you Max Dec 29th
44 Dec 22 Comment Good subject matter, composition, tone mapping, and excellent removal of distractions.

To improve, try cloning over with some tree leaves the building in the back left.		 Dec 29th
44 Dec 22 Comment I can see why the blue reflection attracted you, what a great scene. Technically the lines and tone mapping are well done.

Did you contemplate making it symmetrical in post? 		Dec 29th
44 Dec 22 Comment This vertorama has great impact (even if not held horizontally, lol).
It is great that the technology allowed you to use content aware fill and remove the moving students and that you still have some students for perspe of size. The tone mapping is well done, I like that the one lamp is a tad bright it is easy for HDR images to become too flat (lack contrast). As mentioned the top could be toned down a tad. 		Dec 29th
44 Dec 22 Comment I love the pano view! The image has great impact this way, love the composition and the shadows. The tone mapping is nicely done.

I personally would remove the two people on the right ledge...

Boundary warp is easy and great, I use it frequently		 Dec 29th
44 Dec 22 Comment love this, has a lot of impact and whimsy. Removing some of the people was good. The HDR looks good, but I agree about the yellow green colors cast on the rocks.

So, at low tide, artists come and make this, is there a schedule? an honor code to allow just one artist's idea at a time? Inquiring minds ant to know.

Oregon beaches is high on my list of places to travel to		 Dec 26th
