I'm holding woody in reserve, Art. He will appear when least you expect him...

This was one of the few 9's I voted in the challenge, it really cracked me up. Great way to use multiple frames.

A signature bear_music subject (both of them). ;-) This reminds me of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. ...but with peppers. I am rather disappointed I haven't seen a woody shot from you yet. :(

Very nice composite. A shame that only a handful took advantage of the loose rules. Bumping up.

Creative concept. Crisp, clean and sharp. Like it.

that's just surreal!!
I've never seen a sunrise like it.
and I hope I never do.
actually, I think I would like to see one like that.
wouldn't it be weird if it actually happened?

good job anyway.
and good luck.

Bear - is that you ?

A little overkill if you ask me - oh, and after showing off your extensive photoshop abilities by seamlessly weaving in the halepenos, you could at least have cloned out the sensor dust at the top of the frame :).

This is so strange and yet I like it anyway! I'm not sure of the significance of two chillis crossed into a heart shape nor the reason the tip touches the sun or the combination with a sea scape but... I do like surrealism and this one works for me!

Love the sunrise, and how you have thechillies tip on the tip of rhe sun, but the concept doesn't move me.....

Very Dali-esque. A very nice composition!

Fantastic picture. Love the idea and the colors are great. Good composition with the sun at the tip of the chile

Beautiful sunset, but the lighting on the peppers is too far away from the lighting in the other image to really fit together. Creative idea though.

This is so weird that I like it. LOL

I love this! Great idea, to take it a step further you might try backlighting the Jalapeno's to make it look like the sun is backlighting them. Still I have to give it a 10 for making me smile.
