The Water Babies ~ Charles Kingsleyby Ja-9Comment by Cory: Fits better than expected really. The image here seems to really work for the novel in unexpected ways.
The motion blur is really quite well done too.
A bit of artifacting/oversharpening will keep me from giving this all the love it could have gotten, but I think a 7 is deserved. |

The Water Babies ~ Charles Kingsleyby Ja-9Comment by tvsometime: I know these fish. Love the color and the filigree and the sense of depth even in a shallow pool. Water yes, but babies - ok transformed into water creatures, maybe. 6 anyway for visual appeal. |

One Down ~ Three to Goby Ja-9Comment by pmichaud: Voted before... coming around to comment...
I kept thinking about this image after I voted on this challenge and, although I gave it a good score to begin with, I came back to bump it up. I would love to know the rest of the story here. Great find!! |

The Water Babies ~ Charles Kingsleyby Ja-9Comment by tnun: A bit of stretch from this strange tale. Kingsley was a distant relative of my partner's; as well my father and his siblings were models for the American illustrator of a later edition. Later, Kingsley did really go off his rocker, and your fish maybe illustrate his strange intense energy more than anything else. 5 |

The Water Babies ~ Charles Kingsleyby Ja-9Comment by emoons: I can see this as an interpretation of a water baby. The person is a fish until redemption.
The image looks like watercolor. I like that. The one distraction for me is the yellow wisps at the top right of the image. They keep pulling my eye away. Overall I like the image.
Gave it a 5 |
