You really created a mood with this shot. Maybe some think over processed, and I suppose it doesn't look as much like a photograph now - but what you have made is really lovely. Great colors and tones. I like it.
I was so sure that this was Heida! Still, I hope you take that as a compliment. It's a stunningly beautiful image - and one that IMHO should have ribboned.
Just started back up on dp, looking at past challenges and admiring many of the pics. I have noticed this style in several pics that have come to be my favorite. Just a guess...Heidia? Marvelous.I am guessing that alot of d and b went on to give this that mystical look. Love the purple/blue clouds set off by the vibrant green grass. Picked back up in the stream reflection, but especially noticable in the jeans. great work.
I love the drama and dark flavour of this shot. It's mysterious subject behind the umbrella, stopped at the water's edge leaves me wondering at the story. Very Joey Lawrence-esque.
-edit- I rated this a ten to come back to later. I'm picking this as one of my three favourites for a ribbon, good luck!
Unbelievably great color!! I love the dramatic effect. Some may say "it's overprocessed" but really they are just jealous that you have such amazing skill.
The editing seems slightly overdone; the sky looks unnatural and the textures seem oversharpened. Even so, this is one of my higher-rated images in this challenge.
This is a strange scene that doesnt make much sense, however it is interesting to look at and Im sure will place high based on that alone. Im trying to figure out whose photo this is.....heida? Joey?
A little too much burning and USM for my taste but then again that's JMHO. rain is definitely evident in this image so you've met the challenge for me. 7
wow...what a beautiful image. i really love the use of editing used here too...kinds reminds me of heida's work, except for the non-icelandic surroundings. either way, great job, and good luck.
Wow, some very dramatic toning...usually does well around here although I'm not too big on it. Neat lighting though. I'd love to see a more subdued version but this one is pretty good too.
It seems a tad too dark maybe? A little heavy handed perhaps? JMO....The area behind the figure seems "overburnt" I keep wanting to see just a little more information there as well as in the trees...If find the reflection in the creek very intriguing, so pretty.
Shame the rain is so light in this shot... I had to look at the splashes in the river to see evidence of rain. PP definitely takes this in the direction of digital art, and I'm not 100% sure I like it, but I think it could grow on me. The effect is certainly striking. If the sky wasn't quite so burnt out, I think this would be a very strong shot. I think it's oversharpened too much for my eyes here which detracts from the effect.
WOW!! A truly beautiful image, I really hope this one ribbons. The things that stand out to me most are the nice post-processinga and the wonderful compostition. Awesome job!
