| Field of Dreams? Shouldn't there be baseball players somewhere there? Really, I quite like this composite. ;-) |

| Initially, I had this at an 8, though I lowered it to a 6 (probably should have ended at a 7). I love the composition and I think all the elements are placed very well in the frame. However, on my 2nd pass it didn't feel right. I think it was the lighting/contrast. Not sure if I can put my finger on it for sure. It jumps out at you at first, then the lighting feels a little unnatural. Way better than I could ever do in PS though. I still really liked how everything is composed and combined for a very high interest picture. Congrats on the great score. Comopositionally a 10! |

I thought this would be a little higher up, I think it was the first image I had to vote on and being a procrastinator, I think I looked at atleast ten times before I started voting, nice work with some stiff competition.

Fun to see someone go with this kinda fun composite :)
Few nitpicks, the light on the cow and calf seems a bit harsh when compared to the bails of hay. And the top bails closer the left dont blend in as nicely into the field as the ones in the front. |

| Methinks a bit of expert editing was used on this one! It's very subtle, but it definitely feels like several different elements mushed together. Don't get me wrong, I like it, I just think that it's a tiny bit too much. Still a 6 from me. |

| Very nice colour, clarity, and contrast throughout. Well timed shot, capturing the look of both cows. At first I thought there were too many subjects, but it's not over-complicated at all. Well done. |

Sorry but post processing a bit over the top for me, especially the pasting in of the flowers, they just look really out of place and don´t match up to the rest of the scenery, I would have opted to skip them as they only steal attention from the baloons in the backround wich look much more believable.
I do like this shot with the exception of the flowers, sky maybe a bit flat contrast wise though. |

| This is actually a great idea and, viewed purely from a compositional standpoint, the image is very strong. However, the collage elements don't blend together well and the whole comes across very artificial. (If it's not a collage, then I amend my comment to say: the pp creates a very artificial collage effect). |

| Beautiful! How great that you caught that perfect look of the cows' faces with the balloons behind them! The only thing I might have done would have been to brighten the colors to bring out the beautiful flowers, sky, and colorful balloons. |

Wow. There sure is alot going on here~! I am undecided as of yet what to think if this one. It seems that there are waaaay to many things fighting for my attention. I mean, really, what is this photo about? But overall, I think its very creative.
From a purely editing point of view, the lighting on the cows and the hay bales looke like they are different strengths and coming from slightly different directions. |
