Loved this and while DPC is not ready to fully appreciate this art, a lot of us are. Fantastic dream like effect.
Congratulations on your top 20 finish.
Now that the image is connected with the man behind the camera, I can clearly see that this fits your style. Your versatility within your consistency is impressive.
Sort of reminds me of a JPR special. Very surreal fantasy. Wondering if you titled it first and shot accordingly or shot and then came up with the title. Superb work on many layers. Any way which way you did it won't sway me but I would like to know when this is over the sequence of and how many shots and if you worked with anyone other than yourself in the shooting...if the head shot and the swimmer are both you I cannot believe how difficult that would have been. Regardless it is one my favorites and deserves a 10 from me and a ribbon. Good luck.
uh oh. i think this is just bizarre and fantastic. anyway, i think this attempt is beyond my understanding of delivery. my style and drive is so utterly different than yours, i find myself intrigued. but really for only your sake. the image has lasting power.
I don't know if this is within the rules but besides that, I think it is too dark and even with the help of the title it makes no sense to me. It isn't interesting but I know you put a lot of work into it and maybe if it was brighter. This is more of an artistic rendition of a photograph or photographs. I thought we didn't do that here? Maybe I am wrong. In another context you might find this gets a lot of approval.
