here's a little something I did for a photoshop battle that I thought turned out pretty well. I'm still learning, so feel free to critique me. :D

no critique. just appreciation.
it's nice to see a light touch.
exquisite.

I like it.
It looks simple and elaborate at the same time.

exquisite indeed.

the skyline reflections seems very much just slapped in there & out of place. i don't get any kind of message from this piece, but maybe that's cuz it's out of context?

can you explain a bit what you're trying to convey?

I don't feel that the skyline & reflection is out of place. The image reminds me that there is a natural beauty everywhere, even in the midst of "artifactual" man-made constructions. I like it. I like the version that you have on your website, too. I'd like to see that one in a similar size to compare. Is that possible?

Google says, "It transforms your pain in truth, more fort after the misfortune". Can you elucidate?

I had to look up the word 'elucidate' but found no explaination.

i don't see any manipulation..

same here

I think it is a good job even if the message isn't so clear (I'm not saying it should be!)

perfect.
even without understanding the chinese signs i like it.

Looked at it and thought.. hrmm seen that flower somewhere before.. hrmm.. that was on FlamingPeaches webcam at one stage.. Then I looked at the author :p

Very Cool FlamingPeach :D
Wish I could do something like that or close to it even :)

it's obviously a cultural icon representing the class struggle between hippies and the plastic fingers that point their way.

Lovely.
It has a kind of faded beauty.

I don't think every rendering has to send messsage.

it's a little soft, i would maybe like to see some contrast in it to make it a little more dynamic
