Woah, I like it.. Are you gonna add more detail in the foreground? I think that would really add a lot..

Nice concept, though... Good work.

Kick ass idea, good luck cleaning it up

Merry Xmas,

but wait..shouldn't foreground elements be more detailed than those of the background?? if so is that a REALLY tiny santa flying in the cockpit of the aircraft??? really...it just looks messy to me.

Heh, I can't be the ONLY one who though about that. Thanks for the card!

i always thought that the detail should be on the object of focus, to me this picture is focusing on santa, so why have more detail in the foreground??? ever take a photo of a tree far away?? did you notice that the foreground and extreme background are not as focussed as the tree???


cool pic BTW

well ok, but there's one GLARING error in your reasoning there...and that is i dont care what the INTENT was, i'm still gonna give my opinion.

you're right...but still, even if that was the intent the things in the foreground should look a little blurry and less detailed rather than just being a big mess of paintstrokes...

in his (and possibly my own) defense, the santa part of the image looks great...i just wish he would take more time on the rest of it...
