Description
This image began as an experiment in creating a realistic marble. I often use a shallow depth of field - this time created using masking and a gaussian bluf in PHOTOMAGIC.
PLEASE COMMENT ON MY WORK....

Great job on the marble..and the DOF.
I think this image is great. The only thing I'd like to see is a bit more smoothing around the fingers and knuckles.
Great idea and very fine work.
can I have the marble? g she needs finger prints. i see how you started with the depth of field stuff, I just commented on your fairy pic... didn't realise the dof effect as postwork as well, well done :)
Cool marble, got one just like it at home. A fingerprint would be cool, but can a texture map be that in depth?
