A great dark feel to this, with great detail. I particularly like the way that your picture leads the viewer's eye from your face along your arm to the flower.

Looking forward to seeing the rest of your work now, Elvis. This is top notch. The meaning is great and the construction is brilliant. I'll go look at the others now!

This is surreal (which I really love) and yet amazingly touching in a tangible way. The editing is perfect. The addition of light via dodging/burning is expertly achieved. And although the flower seems "digitally generated", it blends with the rest of the image beautifully. There's a lot to be learned from this image (and I hope I learn at least half of the lessons!).

You show the difference between us. I have decent Photoshop skills, but you have artistic vision to which you apply your skills. I'm really glad you're doing this side challenge, and I look forward to seeing what else you come up with!

The original shot looks to be a great one, but it's only enhanced by the overlay. Nice job!

I really enjoy everything about this image except for the flower. To me the flower just floating there and it seems rather disconnected from the rest of the image. Guess maybe I have been reading too many old Shadow comics, cause I think a hand gun sagging in the outstretched hand would have been perfection.

Great, your first picture for the challenge and it is way too cool. Way to set the bar high.

WOW! Absolutely amazing. Didn't anyone tell you that you shouldn't start out so darned high?
Love the processing, the mood, just everything.

Nice grunge layer to echo the dark moodiness of the image.

THAT is terrific photoshop work!!!!

Very emotional image. The burning is a bit tough, but the emotion of the shot makes up for it. Very cool work, dude.

Elvis, dude, this is a pretty frikkin sweet sp!! I like the haloing around you... it keeps you looking very light and keeps you from dissapearing into the bg... pretty nice PP work, I enjoy the thought behind it and the flower was a great additive!!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/01/2008 06:35:12 AM
Wow, what a beautiful emotive image.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/01/2008 05:41:07 AM
Oh, wow.

Can you keep up this quality for the whole month, or is it all downhill from here? ;-Þ

That's awesome. Extremely creative. The highlights are great. I may have gotten rid of the hard line just above the flower... on the other hand nit-picky opinions like that irk me. All around, this is great.

Wow! Great job creating a mood. My favorite part is the coat. I love all the folds and the dirty look to it.
