See the light

Now that is one crazy effect with beams of light seeming to come out of his eyes and the carousel for a hat, along with the manequin standing blankly observing the whole scene.

This may have done very well for abstract emotion (or not of course), but the more you look at it and take it in the more it grows on you.

Really interesting shot and effects.

Love the scratched up effect - looking good !

Edit to add - you're right - that is one scary looking horse, and I think the scratched up effect helps to emphasise the edgy feel.

Interesting shot !

Nice diagonal running bottom right to top left, a set of leaves running down one of your 'thirds', a sense of DoF with your nearest leaf being in focus and the others sliding out of focus, nice muted colours, and an overlay or two thrown in for good measure !

Like it .

Really nice shot.

So many wonderful tones, textures and shapes. . .

I do wonder whether the border is too heavy ? and maybe too rigid ? perhaps something a little less clearly defined as rectangular would carry on the theme of textures and shapes into the border?

That siad a pleasure to look at :- )

What I will tell you is that it's a great looking shot !

Nice PP work and vignetting, to focus the viewers eye inwards whilst the boats forming the middle ground of the picture make an effective central focal point with the masts peaking height wise, both the right way up and in the reflection to form a nice central bulge.
