41 Jun 23 Reply Tom, An interesting idea. I have no images of people bowing down in my database and do wonder if they might go unnoticed given the upward movement and intensity of the flames, but it is an idea I am going to consider Jun 18th
41 Jun 23 Reply Brian, Thanks for all your excellent feedback, I agree. Jun 18th
41 Jun 23 Reply Hazel, I find it fun, BUT, it can end up wasting a lot of time and take your focus away from creating your own images. The biggest problem is friends now ask "did you do it or was it AI". I have decided to use it as a filter type enhancement, as I did here to avoid taking myself completely out of the loop. Jun 18th
41 Jun 23 Reply Lisa, Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I have played with the flame filter in photoshop before but this was more dramatic. Jun 18th
41 Jun 23 Comment Lisa, This is a striking image. I love the how the colors pop! This reminds me of those images you stare through and end up seeing a 3 dimensional shape by crossing your eyes, except in this case you are rewarded with the image without having to work so hard. You have clearly mastered this technique. Jun 11th
41 Jun 23 Comment Nadia, I really like where you are going with this one. The lighting is interesting and the composition is very inviting. I like the halo effect you've created with the glowing sky behind the hotel. My only suggestion would be to work on the edges of the building as they look a little pasted on. I often use a layer mask and a small brush and paint away a little of the edge to soften, but there are many different techniques people use. Jun 11th
41 Jun 23 Comment Tom, Another masterpiece. Your idea and execution are top notch. I like how the devil is off center and the angel is in the middle of the road. I wonder if an axe would be more menacing in your hand. I'm a walking dead fan and think "Lucile" would be even better (a bat wrapped in barbed wire). Jun 9th
41 Jun 23 Comment I see a knight's helmet, sort of. I like the different textures you've generated as well as the expansive movement. Jun 9th
41 Jun 23 Comment Hazel, I agree you've created a beautiful ethereal effect. I have no suggestions as it seems you've achieved your desired result effectively. Jun 9th

54 Jun 23 Reply Maria, Thank you for your suggestion. I had been bothered by the beam of light and like your idea as a different handling. Jun 23rd
54 Jun 23 Reply I would be honored to inspire another SyFy story. I think the mystery of Stonehenge remains intact though. Jun 18th
54 Jun 23 Reply Alan, I appreciate your confidence in me. Moving a 30 ton stone would not be easy! Jun 18th
54 Jun 23 Reply Peggy, I love how thoughtfully you consider the "logic" of an image. I had a laser beam in my mind when I added the light connecting the figure and the circle but I like your idea. Jun 18th
54 Jun 23 Reply Kirsti, Thanks, an excellent suggestion. Jun 18th
54 Jun 23 Reply Having spent the bulk of the time searching through massive databases to find a subject that fits a landscape I've constructed I fully appreciate the effort, hassle, and deep satisfaction that comes from the pursuit of completion. You chose wisely Jun 11th
54 Jun 23 Comment Maria, You have a very distinctive style that is exceptionally pleasing. This image is impeccably crafted. I can see an equally beautiful image if you eliminate the old tractor and crop the image to make the woman more of a central figure (although eccentrically placed) but I very much like this image just as it is. Jun 11th
54 Jun 23 Comment Kirsti, I think you've created a very compelling composition. I especially like how you created some variety by placing some distance between the pointing version of him on the far left from the other equally spaced figures. This extra long image is fresh and very pleasing to the eye. I can see this hanging nicely on a museum wall. Jun 11th
54 Jun 23 Comment Peggy, I like the experimentation you have done here. I am especially fond of the lower third of the image as the dramatic artificial waves you've created work really well with the sail boat. The green area feels a bit gimmicky to me and the tall buildings feel distracting, i.e. the image feels like it lacks a unifying theme. If I were playing with the image I would keep the very bottom portion and add a different upper 2/3 with a nautical theme. Jun 11th
54 Jun 23 Comment Alan, Although this isn't a typical compositing image it is a wonderful image. Your handling of the tonal range is masterful and the placement of the man is very pleasing. Additionally the proportions of the mosque are beautifully accentuated by the placement of the man. Less is more indeed! Jun 11th
