The background frames the bird very nicely, actually plays off it. Nice light, good design effect.

This would go well with Kelli's boa.. two happy creatures. Looks like a gator, could be a croc. Very well camouflaged.

Bizarre in an interesting kind of way. The tree appears to be growing out of the male mannequin's head.. it actually looks better on him than the beard/moustache. Kind of a funky hairstyle. Unique composite!

Lots of character in that face! But, don't be deceived, that smile is just a come-on.. as in 'come on in for dinner!'
Great framing and detail!! Wonderful capture!!

Lovely colors and unique framing.. this has a great 60's feel to it. It reminds me of the archaic gardens and wonderful florals of that era. These resemble larkspur. The overlay really enhances this image. Nicely done.

Wow, Alan! This enters a whole new realm of digital imaging! Your lack of explanation makes it a little difficult to interpret what you did but it appears to be a series of composites layered onto a white framing. I wonder if it even needs the red velvet background. Very innovative and superbly executed!

Jeanne.. haha, I can see your point on the bikini bottom. It didn't occur to me until I read your post but, I took the time to really study this and I could see Lauren's face in the shadows. This is an excellent example of Roz's unique ability to merge photos together and create something totally different and at times, unusual. I was intrigued by the thumbnail and just had to see what this was. The blur creates a wonderful focus on the bird which is so pretty. Looks like a little parakeet.. beautiful white feathers with subtle markings.

I like your philosophy re: out of the box entries and totally agree with you. Your imagery is unique and has a wonderful sense of design. The POV in this is exceptional. This has an irridescent quality about it. Excellent!!
