Ferry

[squirrels]

Not to beat a dead horse here, but I can't get enough of these.

did you lay a sky as texture/ It's kinda cool but the 'ferry' is too well defined.

 

[squirrels]

Too much with the sky? The whole thing has been hanging out in GIMP for a while.
You are right on the ferry. Thanks for pointing that out! Let me know if this works better or if it still needs softening.

now if they were really smart, they would have jacked up the golfcart, connected the line to the axle and gunned it lol

on a more serious note - great photograph - although it kind of looks like you are shooting through some glass (it might just be atmospheric conditions and/or the way the light is reflecting off the water)
The lack of a defined horizon helps create a sense of isolation

And now I have just realised that this might be a model?, or maybe... hmmm

See above comment about being a great photograph

pretty cool, I like how there is no obvious spot where the sea ends and the sky starts.

In the left corners there are some funny spots, possibly from where you rotated the image?

:thumbup:This may be where the expression "Going to heck in a golfcart" came from. You mean that isn't an expression?

Oooo! Your title makes it better than mine. Thanks!!

Drat! Foiled again by arbitrary rotation!

Thanks so much you guys!:hug::

I played with this one more time based on this comment from amolitor.

These are cute, but I find the compositing somewhat jarring. Have you considered how to make the inserted images more ethereal, or fantastical? I'd consider muting colors, blurring/softening, placing them in the frame translucent, and maybe deliberately askew, like ghosts or dreams lost in the wrong dreamscape, or something.
That's just me, obviously, but perhaps my idea will spark an idea you like.

And this is what I got. I kind of like this one, but I'm not sure if I'm as happy with these as with the earlier versions. Maybe I like jarring? It is possible that browsing "You are not a photographer" has had the wrong effect on me. I'm reminded of a Dolly Parton quote:

I patterned myself after this woman that was the town tramp back home. She had blond hair and high heels and red fingernails and lips, and to me she was like what movie stars were to other kids. We'd see her, and I'd say, "Oh, look, she's got plastic goldfish in her heels!" and my mama would say, "She ain't nothin' but trash, nothin' but trash," and I thought, "Ooh, that's what I'm gonna be when I grow up — trash!"


​

Anyway... I thought I'd post it up and see what happens.

Number 3



On a side note, I'd kill for shoes with plastic goldfish.
