I think your conversion is excellent Gaylord, I’m impressed with the multiple levels you’ve achieved.

Just a subjective comment: I really like the pastel colors and I appreciate the creativity of creating the image. I'm just not sure of those insects. I think the world would be an extremely boring place if we all liked the same things.


I agree Fstop. Of course the insects could go but that would be a different picture.

The image to me appears to be sharpest right at her face. I'm assuming this was done intentionally and it works for me. R.G. mentioned and "odd" look; but I think "beauty" itself is completely subjective. She looks beautiful to me.

RG was probably feeling grumpy that day, he probably likes her now Erich!

Oh it has to be colour to do justice to the lovely artwork, pottery and clothing Voss. It’s all very attractive.

A nice shot of your garden Frank but I’ll resist visiting if it’s OK with you! Nicely done composite.

I don’t know if your breeds align with ours but Mary has the look of a Border Terrier, allowing for the fact her legs have sunk into the snow a bit. They are great characters, I bet she thoroughly enjoyed the snow. The shot certainly does as you say Veronica. Great fun.

You got it right first time Don, it’s looks great. Good colour choices and the paint finish is right for the title. Nicely done.

This really is excellent saxman, the colours, shapes and composition are spot-on. The train is right as it is, for both colour and position. I can appreciate the effort required in making the picture- and it was well worth it.

A pleasure to see this composite was made using your creations rather than an AI creation. I have the feeling that the size of the butterfly is too large when comparing it to the size of the bird and flowers.


As it’s a fantasy image Gaylord, there is no need to compare reality. So the butterfly can be any size we like - of course I do realise that some folk won’t think it looks ‘good’ (rather than ‘right’) but it’s the size that I thought suited. I might well be wrong, I’m not used to doing fantasy! I do appreciate your input, you know that, but I think I’ll leave it as is.

Terrific work. I believe I would not miss the wasp and spider. Definitely the wasp and maybe the spider. If it was mine I might attempt to darken the background a bit for more contrast just to see how that looks.


Yes, the wasp can go saxman - but not the spider, he’s essential. The background started darker but I wanted a much lighter overall look. I felt it lost its ‘fantasy’ feel when darker. Many thanks for your thoughts on it, I appreciate them.

Well, I wouldn't mind looking this pretty but the spider really turns me off...great contrast of feelings!


He’s quite a friendly spider Veronica, wouldn’t hurt a soul! And you have got it of course, he’s there for the contrast. Many thanks for commenting.

Thanks Dave. You can trust him. He is the bearer of all knowledge. Like a ghost he can appear without completely being there.
He unlike knowledge, I bought him.


You’d think a man like that couldn’t be bought Frank!

Here are my choices in Elements. I tend to use them individually, depending on what I want, though no doubt "Free Transform" covers it all.


Yes that’s it. So you choose Transform, which allows you to enlarge/reduce the image and rotate it. You can also hold down ctrl/cmd and grab a corner to skew it (useful for quickly straightening up a bit of parallax). Or hold alt/opt and grab one of the midway points to enlarge from the middle (or wherever the centre mark has been moved to - very useful when compositing). Or hold Shift and enlarge from one side only. Or you can choose one of the other options such as Skew. Those things are best done as a separate choice. Occasionally you may run into trouble having, say, Skewed the image, and then try one of the other commands as it reverts to original shape but Adobe will sort that in due course I expect. Liquify and Transform don’t always play together nicely either. All-in-all, it a powerful tool for sure.

She is not pleased by the addition of a bee and spider... "You expect me to smile when attacked by spiders and bees"? This model will demand more money for posing.

Spider and bee are the discussant cord to undo the melody of Ms. Sweet Thing and her pink bird butterfly innocent girl world.

Perhaps those that sting and bite are the sour that makes the sweet sweeter.

Without the spider and bee, the photo would not have much punch... they are needed to evoke the "Hey wait a minute" viewers' reaction. Well spiced magnetoman

How do I know I can trust him Frank, he looks rather transparent to me! Nicely done. Is he yours or AI?
