Just thought I'd add to the accolades here... this is an awesome replication of an awesome shot! Congrats for the ribbon, and kudos to whomever is the owner of the sexy abs! :)
Congratulations on your first ribbon for this expertly done entry. Really well done and one of my top picks for this interesting and difficult challenge.
Thank you everyone for your uplifting comments :) It was fun to get a ribbon even though the idea was not mine.
The original shot by smokeditor is soo nice, and I am really glad to hear that he liked my outtake as well :p.
There were soo many good pictures in this contest, and I really would have love to see someone with a original idea getting this one, I almost didn't want to score this high.. lol
If I had a original or funny idea, I would have tried that instead. But I learned alot by doing this, I think everyone did who competed.
Very good overall, to me it's the same picture! :)
The lighting is perfect the body too.
The Ribbon even fits it better. It seems that you managed to do everything correct, even wining the ribbon. Congrats on your first and blue ribbon, way to go.
Wow this is so very nearly Identical. I really don't know how to score it - I think I prefer the images in this challenge that provide something approaching an interesting spin on things. But for sheer skill in imitation I have to give it an 8. Make that a nine - that is one sexy stomach.
Just a little better lighting and this one would have been dead-on to the original. I think a lot of work went into this shot. It does appear just a little dark for my tastes, but still nicely done.
Quite an excellent recreation of John's excellent Defining Features entry. This is very comparable in technical quality. Lighting is just a little bit more harsh. Well done.
Incredible, I had to do a double take when I saw this to make sure that it wasnt the original. You have done a wonderful job recreating this shot, from the lighting to the water. Mad props to you! Of course I had to give this a 10
Strictly comparing to the original shot, I prefer the lighting as it falls on the torso and the pattern of water droplets in the original. That said, this is an excellent shot on it's own and it's an excellent tribute. 8.
