Comment from Jean A Cormier


Okay, you got me on this one, Cleo! I was certain you had done a drawing here! Imagine the surprise when I say it was a composite of four photos! I like the sepia conversion with the subject matter, the scrub type of plant life in the foreground is particularly exciting-I like the silhouette effect very much personally. Good balance with the leafy area on the right side! Very lovely! jean

    Thank you Jean! Once again I have to apologize fore my late reply, especial such an important review! Thank you very much for you attention and your high rating!
    You know, what ever I do, I cannot hide the painter in me. I have this one done somewhat like you do the dry brushing. I used the transparent brush similar to using the eraser, Make that sense?

    Not to worry Cleo, I am so far behind, I can never catch up! Yes, that does make sense as it appears to be scrubbed out!

Impressive result of the composite layerings creating a vintage looking image in sepia overtone.
Nice tonal variations.
Subtle lighting.
Clear focusing.
Aesthetic framing.
Thanks for sharing...

    Thank you Shirley! Your review, means much more to me than you can ever can imagine. Of course I appreciate the gold and your winning wish very much, But your approval of my work and my notes are far the most important. Thank you!
    [Thanks for being fast, but you were to fast. You missed some $$. I was going to promote it right a way, but had trouble even posting it. The connection stayed bad all afternoon. I could not review either. Sorry!!

Comment from snowblaze


I think a little too much is going on here. However, the goings-on do harmonize with the old man.

He is nicely focused and the conversion to sepia was a good choice -- with all of the layers.

Right I am eating up all my space - working the same way in fractals guarding all steps apart - fantastic job, I love the nice face expression of this man , has a look as Santa Claus , great natural statue colors your layers and enhancements even could create the impression that the clear parts are snow - nice contest entry , I have no idea about layers, but the result is beautiful, well composed, well worked out, thanks for sharing and all the best for the contest
