I consider myself a beginner with photoshop, so this project was a learning experience for me. I used the following elements for my entry. Taken at the zoo, home and waterfront walk. I also used a flood filter to create the water and lens flare to make the moon. I painted in the fog and blurred the hell out the background. I added texture to the robot using Kamodo skin. I did a lot of cloning, burning, color matchig, painted in shadows, etc.

Congratulations, Frank. Well deserved ribbon. A well as the fantastic creature, I love the atmospheric effect you have produced in this. Thanks for including the elements in your notes it is great to see how things come together.
Congratulations Frank on your totally deserved ribbon! While you may have used that Shakespearean scene as an inspiration, it takes a whole other meaning here, with the creature holding what's remaining of the human civilization, very clever.
All of that detailed and effective photoshop work and you consider yourself a beginner? That would make me still in an embryonic state. Congratulations on the deserving ribbon.
A world apart from the other entries in this challenge. Completely awesome and the stand out shot. Compared to the seagull shots this is in a whole other league. Great imagination, and I expect a ribbon for this one.
great work love it, in my top 4 all on 9. not sure how you created the armour etc though? photo of predator? is what it look like to me? and a bit hamlet esque with the skull ;) "alas poor Yorick"
