Wow, very nice! :) Great colours too. My only critique is that the statue looks rather flat aginst the backdrop, because it's all black. Maybe some soft highlights would help to define it as more 3d? Anyway, great job for a first photo-manipulation!

I love it! Nice work Jose! I love silouettes. The colors are stunning. My only crit ... there is a lack of sharpness in the foreground.

Great job for your first photo manip!!!

You did a great job here, great mood :)
But am I right, that tree where on the original photo a woman is standing in front of - it seems to me like it's floating? And, what Michelle already critted, especially the silhouette is a bit unsharp.

I love the clouds. The karate guy standing on the chimney is a little hokey to me. I think he could've used a little lighting work to make him look not so much like a cutout. Maybe some lighting on the edges or something.

Well, Well, Well...we have a First class Artist here...we really do!
It's a work to be proud!

Two hands up! (ten fingers!!) all my points.

I have two observations for you...(even if you send your bodyguards over me..)
Main two windows: so bright white, should be more like...candles or torch mood..They don't use electricity, not even today.
The statue...or the Kung fu Training man. Being sunset or sunrise..should have a subtle light from that side. And (it is personal taste...) If you focused the temple like the subjet, the statue would be more...fading, vanishing...(I can't find the right english word..sorry) like more out of focus.
If you feel he's standing on a chimney... Go filters...liquify..."Freeze the whole guy" (with the freeze brush) then, choose any other brush and Distort the "column" as your wish...make it like a ruin...an old one.
anyway..in Photoshop you have 20 different ways to do the same thing, it's up to you!! Big hog! Among this, you did a GGRRREAT job Blending those images.

Hi eremita,

The composition is ok in this piece. As an overall comp, it works. The thing that I will have to crit you on is your sky. The detail within it is beautiful but too distracting. My eye can't stop to focus on one area of your picture. When creating a piece it is important to create a center of attention, something the eye can relax itself on. In this piece, it can't relax, the silhouette, the building and the sky are all competing with eachother to stand out! The colours are beautiful however and the idea is great! Keep it up and try to keep that in mind for your next piece. From what I've seen, uou don't seem to have that problem with your photos.

well what i think about this is:
the sky is good i like the warm color, then the guy fits perfectly but i'm not so sure about the Japanese house, and the filter you added isn't the best, you shouldn't add filters, sometimes they just make the thing worse you know? but the colors are okay, i'm not sure about the house because of the perspective of the guy

Intriguing piece, with an ever more gripping storyline: but why do I feel that the building behind seems more Japanese than Chinese to me?

Overall it seems fine but I'm pretty sure that is a Japanese style temple. Might want to use a Chinese temple if it is supposed to be a Shaolin Temple.
