This one was a great entry and a nice compilation. The only thing that didn't really work for me was the fact that the lighting on the unicorn comes from the opposite direction as the lighting on the ground. That may have been what kept this back a bit. Overall great work though!

Well, I'm kinda surprised this didn't land on the front page. Beautiful work, Billy!

One of the stronger edits, but a little too CGI for me.

The composition is above average and is appealing to look at. I love the magical feel/mood captured in this image. There is without a doubt a-lot of work put into piecing this together. Some elements are photographic in nature while others have an illustrated look; indeed it reminds me of a cover for a folder that I had way back in high school, but that was a pegasus. Again, I give this high marks for composition and the magical feel this projects. However I wish that there was more attention to lighting in that all elements had the light fall or are light in a realistic manner. I think that is one area that becomes problematic with moving it out of a the photographic realm and more into the digital art realm. The separate elements all have different light and shadow. What I mean by that is that if you look at the unicorn the shadow falls upon the bottom of the head and torso - that should also be seen on the cliff face. But it is not, the top snow covering is lit correctly to match the unicorn but the rest of the rock cliff face should fall into more shadow.

A lot of work here......

Great scene, although it has the feeling of completely done in photoshop (maybe a filter you used gives it the unrealistic look).
07/22/2010 10:02:24 AM
This is one of two of my favorite unicorn shots in the challenge.. I would imagine this might hit the front page. Nice editing!!!!

Great elements in this image, each very nicely done. Even the unicorn is killer. But the blending of the elements isn't quite there for me.

Not sure where hope comes from, but a great edit. Ribbon territory...

Oh this is a great image. Love the crispness of it all. Straight off of the cover of a sci-fi novel.
