nicely done... but I think you post it in the wrong theme, this must be in Digital Dark Room theme... some people risk thier life just to get real photo's to join here... its just a thoughts you can ignore me. overall very nice digital Imaging you've done here. #727466

Well it is a picture of people taking pictures. I wouldn't enter it into "Nature & Landscapes" or "Animals" but it does fit with the "Monthly Theme".

Just having a little fun here and since some images can fit into more than one category I'll leave it for the official decision makers to decide. #4729591

Very clever and effective image. You're obviously a dab hand with PS as well as a camera! #4729657

Terrific image you've created here, James! I predict a Winner! I think the MT or DDR categories are appropriate, given your disclosure about the (obvious) DDR work. Great job! #4729663

Marvelous look to your creation, James!
I agree with Mike ~ especially about this being a winner! #4729682

That is some terrific post work! If this doesn't place in the Theme, you've gotta resub in DD!! Beautiful work! #4729814

James... this image and your other image "Orca" ROCK!! I strongly believe that anything goes for the monthly theme and catch all categories!! I entered a manipulated image in this category.... so no worries brother. Keep up the great work and good luck on your entries! #4730331

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the comments and compliments. Sometimes you can lose perspective on an image (such as this) that takes a good bit of time and work to combine the elements in a believable manner. Therefore, your feedback is greatly appreciated. JQ #4742589
