| What a character - and you have captured the eccentricity well. The choice of processing is very clever, with the would-be mayor as one with the statues, or perhaps like an animation character, not quite real! |

| Really like the style you gave this. The processing really makes the man seem like part of the statuary. I like your story too. |

| Very clever processing - don't listen to anyone who says it's overdone because it's perfect to show the "real" similarity to the statues. |

| This is where extreme editing can work. Nice capture and editing. Your subject looks remarkably like the statues he is posed beside. Bump in score. |

| I wonder how this would have looked if the statues had a little less of the post processing. To make the figure look even more like them? |

| not usually fan of this editing style but I think, in this case, it works well. It makes the human look more like the statues and I had to look twice to verify which were real and which were not, which intrigued me. And his bag and coat echo the statues; even his blue suit mirrors their verdigris somewhat. Very well thought out, or a lucky take. at any rate, I like what was put into this, thought wise, to make it work so well. 8 been through all the others, bump to 9 because I enjoy looking. |
