No work with hobbit? Then you simply outpassed me BIG time!!! This is awesoem work of Hobbits caliber!!!!!! Love it!

Very well done as usial! My compliments!

Nice! Beautiful and picturesque, like a dream. Very well composed.

Although you and my friend Andy collaborated, and you were able to pick up a few helpful pointers Mel - your images are still YOU. As I look back over your imagery - what I see is Mel's distinct style and that special individuality. Hobbit too has his own unique style and for any of us to copy or simply strive to replicate another's work means we don't care enough to develop our own artfulness - and that's simply not true of your work. This is such a lovely serene piece of natural landscape with excellent wildlife and that is your style. Excellent work Mel and a vote from me.

Not this time Terra-man but the tut have help me and many inspiration :)

My gosh, you are soooo good. THis is beautiful

C'est vraiment magnifique, chaque image est un reel chef d'oeuvre, super boulot.

Simply breathtaking imagery Melany. Wonderful composition, atmosphere and depth. Great use of colors also. Beautiful work once again Mel. ---- Scott.

The lighting is wonderful, and the overall image very pleasant to look at. Brava!!!

Yes, I must say you work is getting as good as Mr Hobbit. This is a brilliant piece of work.

Everyone else have allready said it all... this is one of the best works I'v seen here. Bravo!

So good that it's scarey. Beautiful work. cheers

Outstanding work. The composition, colours and mood of the pic are all wonderful.

Absolument superbe ! Le travail de peinture est extement bien fait. Bravo et ficitation !

This is really beautiful...I love your imagination...My compliment's for this excellent artwork...

I can retire :),,, wonderful coulours and composition.

hey Andy,stop this now ok? smile

I'm strongly hope that none of you both will ever retire and keep on showing us this beautiful images. Melany, your work is improving day by day, from excellency to... (you name it). I love the colors and the soft, delicate painting on this one. Gets my vote.

Very wonderful lighting Mel! It looks peaceful...almost heaven like! Great Job!

While I think this is absolutely gorgeous work, what bothers me is that I am not able to tell it's not hobbit's work. The theme, composition, colour tones - they're all almost identical to his work. I think it's wonderful you are learning new things from him, but I would like to see you use that knowledge to create your own distinctive style in the future. Nevertheless, this is very beautiful work and shows you have a lot of talent. I hope you won't be offended because of my comment.

Excellent image! Everything blends together. Great work once again!

Looks like you adapted Andy's style very well. Fantastic job on this image! :)))

You have right Fowyn I understand your point,but the only thing I think I have to change Is the trees.Yes I have learn alot with his tutorial.But I see a big difference between my work and the work of Hobbit :)really, it is not enought perfect for compare to his work!!!!But thanks for all the comments.I appreciate them.==Melany==

Wow..excellent picture.

brilliant..a joy to the eye..

Beautiful job! Looks so much like an oil paiting, especially the daubed on touches on the trees. Very peaceful and serene scene.

Adorable dreamy and misty landscape, excellent in composition and colors. Looks just like a painting. Love it. A vote :o)
