Oooooooh. . . what a cool picture, Harvey. Very versatile for you. An out-of-your-normal-box kind of picture, and it turned out AWESOME! Congratulations on finishing in the top 20. You rock. . .as usual :)

Nice shot , maybe a little better if Camera was moved to the left and upper arm and hand away from the background tree. Still a 10

Interesting image, nice composition, especially with snow and trees -- good eye to spot it and thanks for sharing the image with us.

i do not care for the digital "effects" this has left the realm of photography for me.

Wonderful idea composition etc but to much post processing and i dont really get how it fits the challenge

when i made my first pass, i almost commented 'i wonder how many people will be able to relate to the lighting here at this time of morning?' and now that i see the validation flag, i guess the answer to my question is 'at least one' ;-) i don't know if you captured this best angle here, but then again, at that time of morning, in the cold, at this particular place, i don't know how many long exposure shots i would be trying, either...

hmm nice work on the photograph but theres something about it that... i think its going to make it loose points.... i think its the filter you applied to it..

That stone face is priceless. This makes me think of the statue they have in the crashing waves in Australia. An excellent subject to choose. 9

Normally I'd say you should never be so heavy handed with Photoshop filters, but I think it really works here. Looks a bit like a cell from an animated film.

What a strange image! I wish you would have moved POV a tad to the right so the reaching arm was not precisely overlapping the biggest tree. It would be better is the foreground, especially lower left, were not so bright, but I suspect you had no control of the light and of course this is basic editing so youc an't burn.

Very cool image! Great exposure.

This is a great concept - probably in the description I cannot see but where is this?

Too funny. The back arm blends too much with the tree in the background, IMHO.

DC? I used to go see this statue, have pictures as a kid in his mouth... I really like this

Amazing sculpture, love the snow on it. Is that a painting behind it or real trees? Looks like you might have used too much neat image or noise reduction on it.

This is a great shot!

Very interesting to look at. Is this for real, or digital art? Wish I could read your details about it.

Is this statue really as big as it seems?
