[QUOTE=Nipa;38746339]I quite like this one. It looks strangely complex, yet appealing. Nice work.[/QUOTE] I like it too. Upon first glance I thought it was that textured glass from an older car headlight with a slight reflection on it.

It would be very interesting to see these done with subjects mixed that had an obvious emotional relationship, for instance a gruffy sailor combined with this lighthouse pic. I love how his hair is the same texture as the ocean waves. Actually the more I look at this the more it interests me. Was this a double exposure in film or merged together with Photoshop?

The picture looks underexposed and overexposed in places that shouldn't be. It looks very FAKE in that way, the point of decent HDR is to overcome problems of single shots, so you should of aimed to get rid of the exposure qualms.

Placement in the frame is ok, just maybe if you had pivoted around to your left and placed the subject with the bright grass and blown out sky in the background I could give great definition through a solid silhouette. A good rule of thumb I use (read it in some old famous photographer's advice article) is that if you can squint/blur your vision and still make out the subject easily then it is well defined and gives the photo a bit more initial impact.
Gotcha. Cheers.

[QUOTE=HiddenMyst;38789337]Is that with a star filter or is the lens just like that with highlights?[/QUOTE] star points == number of aperture blades. (the smaller your aperture the more dramatic the effect becomes).
