I suspect it is going that way with most graphics software. Hence the large range of official videos put out on YouTube etc. It makes you appreciate that one piece of ancient software that is barely compatable that always did that odd irreplaceable effect no other does.

Its not the construction that appears not as a fish out of water, but the strong association in perception that a fish would be in water. To break that would need equally strong association, but with air. Maybe relace the rocks with clouds, and background of blue? If the fish had a vapour trail too, it could be seen as potential ariel food. |

Simple and effective. The muted colours suit the calligraphic subject well. Its definitely an M&S, but that is using a third multinational icon. |

Thanks, Ian. The feedback filter is one of the Reflection Effects filters in Paint Shop Pro. It (assumably) produces multiple resize layers with frequency and XY offset at user selection. |

Or maybe a background to stand against? |

With the work complete, and thinking of pulling dangerous tails, maybe you can cut out the man and rat from the background, and place them somewhere that might enhance the element of danger :-)

One thing is for sure, there's little of natural material to leave it as a straight record shot. The person looks like the artwork is appearing Happy Potter style, which works well. I feel the rat's head works, and is fitting though a little indistinct. The rails, though minor, serve to keep a sense of reality. |

I like the idea, and feel it could work very well. After thinking about it, I decided it was the lack of figures standing out from the surroundings that did it. Maybe a little softening of the rock walls will make it more 3D.

I was thrown by the original until reading the "how I did it". I can see the idea behind it, but the pose of the figure suggests a disconnection. For a dream, the clock works (as expected), but I wonder if the cut etc. could have a little distortion, or touches of transparency. Maybe to fit with the Dali theme, the chair could be emerging from a frame instead of hanging in mid air. |

The filter works well to enhance the line and colours in reduced detail, without loss of the likes of the reflections in the water. The effects on foliage I particularly like. The left hand path, with loss of detail, tends to look like a distracting smudge. mayybe a colour change to foliage green? |

The applied filter works well to convey the effect of a dull day. More through the looking glass than Renoir, unless you overlay the figures the figures with detailed originals. I prefer it as is, in that respect, with the frosted glass appearance.
The white bag bothers me not, being and and between strong reds as it is. But that point did make me think that a local desaturation filter might be usefully applied to put the colourful figures into relief against a monochrome background to reflect the dull day. |
