Beautiful photo. Great post production work. Creative with great visual impact. Great composition with the mermaid swimming among the waves in the ocean. Excellent clarity, lighting, and color. Well done.

This is remarkable. I no longer have 6 stars to give, but I wish I would have saved one for this amazing work of art. You have made this look like an oil painting. I love your mermaid. Truly.

this is a beautifully executed work of art. I am impressed with the detail and texture of the ocean. I really like how she is still visible through the wave. Really nice technique and great skills. This definitely show cases you talent as an artist.

Wow, this is a creative photo and very well done. I thought it was a traditional piece of art at first glance. The blending of the image into the wave looks like it could be realistic
if the imagination is suspended to believe in mermaids! Very nice shading of the water.
