This is beautiful, Alessandro! Maybe one day I will pay a visit to this spot (and use a 10,000 mm lens to capture your house from this spot too:) )

Maybe it is totally fine and I should go read the rules again. I though distortions were not allowed to a point where it changes the viewer's perspective on the image. Great final product regardless. Distortions are allowed if they don't change the image too much. I don't think a bit longer fingers or bigger eyes change things radically. Moreover, the image is validated, so it looks like the council shares my opinion on this one :)

Congratulations! However with all due respect I completely disagree with the SC's decision on this. A little finger elongation, eyes enlargement, chin smaller, little here, little there, it does in fact change the image quite a bit. Of course, it is not my decision that matters, it is theirs and if they feel it is legit, then it is, however I don't. I think this is more like expert editing to me, just my opinion. Keep up the good work!

Did you have to do anything to her ring finger and her eyes since they look a tiny bit liquified (ring finger's knuckle looks bigger than it should, and her eyes a bit bigger than they should). Picture is not large enough to tell for sure, but just the impression that I am getting from this 800-pixel long image. Thank you Allen! Yes you are very close to the truth: I used liquify to make her fingers a bit longer, and eyes a bit bigger. Also, I made my chin thinner to get closer to the original characters appearance. You have good eyes :)

The amount of detail in this to go and exactly match the poster is incredible. The image quality is not where I would like to see it especially for an 8+ score, but your hard work and your facial expression are what won the crowd over. Big congratulations, DPC wife, I mean Jenn ;)
