Description

GIFT WRAP THIS... This title was fun.... I thought of kids asking Santa for the impossible - such as a little girl who lives in the part of the world that doesn't get snow... She wishes for a Snow Angel.... Now just how are you gonna wrap it? lol I started working on this 24 hours before the deadline - I cut it close, but it's a wrap - lol I used ALL PHOTOS, collaborated them together, shrunk, stretched, cloned.... fun project... I hope you enjoy. program used: Photo Explosion This was my entry for the Photography / Holiday Contest... the theme was "GIFT WRAP THIS" I think I should of won something for "Nailing the Theme", but I've learned through the years that the "Theme" really doesn't matter. VIEW THE WINNERS OF THE PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST AT: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/contest/index.php?view_results=1373 NOTE: I have rarely commented this last year, so please don't think (like some) that I don't like your art.... I love my favorite artists art, just haven't found the time to comment let alone play in poser.... I haven't played in poser for close to a half a year - so please don't take it personal I haven't been visiting your galleries... Last thing.... The Elf and Santa faces are me with painted on beards just in case you didn't catch that.

Fun pic! And well done too. It should have, at the very least, got an honorable mention on photomanipulation and creativity. And no offense taken. Ever.

As usual, your brilliant humor comes through in spades, Mike! This is a delightful composite, and suits the theme of the contest much better than many of the entries, IMHO. I love that you are "starring" (LOL) in the dual roles, Mike! You are definitely missed, buddy - The T.N.A. Girls send a big kiss your way (MUWAH). I understand why - sometimes RL has to take priority, and sometimes it's hard to find time. Come back when you can, bro - I'll save your chair at the table, my friend!

There's always a chair waiting whenever you get the feeling Mike. I agree you should have got an honorary mention at least!

Very funny Mike! And you should stop apolosizing (or what ever that word should be written) for not commenting on other peoples work..because if you only keep commenting you will never be able to create something yourself..;)

OMGosh Mike, I just about split a gut laughing .. this is one awesome piece of work and I cannot believe you didn't win a thing .... again. But we know how the system works, and if you ain't the "in crowd" you get nothing, not even a nod. I know how hard it is to piece together a work from photos .. to get all the shadows to work, and to make it look like it was one piece of work, and not a hodge-podge of stuff stuck together. Most excellent work Mike.

This is a very funny image Mike, i am sorry for the late comment on this one. But i have a lot of painfull weeks behind me with our son. That is a long story to tell, i will not bore you with it. It's also still wish you a Happy New Year Mike. But i like your funny image Mike.
