I like this very much, but I wonder if the processing isn't a bit much for a regular Free Study. It's pretty far from a photograph. It would be perfect if the editing set was Expert. I still gave it a good score, just because I like it so much, but I would have scored it higher if this was an Extended Free Study.

Giving you a good score. The photo fits the challenge perfectly and I absolutely love the scene of this photo, but for me, a bit over processed in the edit. I really hope you do well.

i absolutely love it when a photograph becomes something so much more thru editing ..
dont get me wrong photographs can be awesome too .. but its great when a photographer has a vision for a photograph and creates art ..

last night i got the dynamic auto painter software .. and have tried out a few of the presets .. this has that feeling about it .. i'd love to know how you created this piece of glorious art from what i would say was a pretty awesome photo .. :)

well seen, beautifully photographed and magic edit .. :)

I can see that validating entries has opened for you opportunities to post comments like this, THIS IS NOT RIGHT THING TO DO! Nobody else on SC has ever done that!

I love this type of real life photo in a place far away, but it's not a photo any more.

I really love this painterly effect very much. It's a lovely image and very well composed. Not voting.

Looks like a Margaret classic. This is worthy of printing.
