54 Oct 22 Reply Thank you for your feedback. Your preference for the original version makes me favor the original, also. I left the road to the man's left that is in front of the house a little lighter because I thought the light from the house might make it a bit brighter, but you've convinced me to darken it a bit. This is not indecision on my part. This composite has been a work in progress for a couple of years. Oct 19th
54 Oct 22 Reply I actually lightened my original because I thought it was too dark, but now I'm happy to have a comrade on the dark side. Oct 9th
54 Oct 22 Reply Quite an improvement. This is a very successful composite! Oct 9th
54 Oct 22 Reply Your nasty snarl is quite subtle and does not look like an obvious cliche. It's a much harder task than you make it seem, and it certainly gets the job done. Way to go! Oct 7th
54 Oct 22 Comment What a beautiful sunset. The sun reflecting in the water was captured quite well, and the bird adds a great deal. However, there are a couple of drawbacks in your image. You sharpened the edges of the bulb, but unfortunately the bulb looks cut out from a magazine. You also sink the boat in the midst of such a nice sunset. For me, these two treatments are distracting. Revisiting this image would be worthwhile. You have a nice sunset to work with.

54 Oct 22 Comment You have made fine use of Photoshop's vast array of tools and it works very well. He's a dragon with a kind face and a warm smile. There's a line in Macbeth that summarizes the sum total of your efforts: It was "a joyful trouble." The best part is that it works! (If you look closely on the top of the dragon's head, you will see a baby dragon resting there complete with muzzle, eye, and a mane.) Oct 6th
54 Oct 22 Comment Everything you did worked very well. The blending of the man into the cloud is seamless, and the blue tone adds to the realism of a man in a tornado. The only aspect that troubles me is if the man in the final image looks too kindly to be a storm. Nice work. Oct 6th
54 Oct 22 Comment The texture, colors, houses in the distance, and the animals on the scooter make a successful composite. At first glance, the paths lead the viewer into the image, but a closer look reveals a mirror image that is distracting. The mirror image has inadvertently created a monster in the center of the image complete with bulging eyes and a nose and a mouth. When you look at the "monster," you'll see that a house in the background, also inadvertently, is also in front of the "monster." The paths are an important part of this composite, but the mirror image detracts from their real potential. It's a good image and can be better with corrections. Oct 5th
