absolutely gorgeous. i could spend a long time looking at that. love it.

Thanks very much carly =)

That has got to be one of the most refreshing and peaceful images to look at. Quite a mile away from your dark tendensies but with the same quality(A+) brush work (blending of the images) of all your volleys.

I don't know how you do it O. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

squidlips:

your image is also impressive. I'm digging the texturing and type work.

Well, that's a thorough compliment if I've ever heard one. Thank you very much nepzap ;)

You rocked that last image O. I think the blending of the animals is pretty damn good with the shadows and reflections on the water. I also dig the subtle text treatment on the bottom as it doesn't take away from the realistic "photo-esque" feel of the imagery. My only gripe is that the water seems a little too calm and uninterupted but that's just a minor issue.

Thanks CI, I really like the text a lot as well. As far as the calmness of the water, I don't know if I'd agree...I made the line where you begin to see under the water a little wavy because that would have been horrible as a straight line, but I think a lot of the tranquility in the image comes from the glass-like water and reflections.

Don't you still have one image to make to wrap up our battle? ;)

yeah...yeah...yeah. ;)

With rollcanvas and march madness coming up I really need to find some time to knock out some images. I know the momentum has died in our battle, but I WILL finish it...someday...soon maybe.

Penguins don't eat sea lions, silly boy. :)

And polar bears and penguins are never in the same pole. =]
