Thanks for the tips. I didn't do any cropping, the frame caused the white portions. Hmmm, maybe I should listen to Rod. The light was from a difficult source. I set the dino on a white piece of paper and pointed my kids green StarWars light at it. That's the reason for 10sec shutter. Thanks for the constructive critism Jano and Rod. I'll see if I can find time to work on it a little more. -Doug

The light comes just from the right angle. I love the shadow. Nicely done. -gerald

Jano have you been drinking again:-)

And now looking at it closer... i would try to even out the tone in the upper right as the green seems to cut off rather sharply. The cloning tool set at 5% should get rid of that nicely. jano

I like this overall and think it has great creativity :). Couple of points... I would like to see a little more light on the face (not much but just the littlest tad but no huge deal). Also... you have cropping showing up on the upper left and lower left of your photo. (That occured to myself many times so no biggie). I like the black frame as I think it adds to the image. Well done!! jano

It's Gaaawdzilla ;)
I love the overall greenish hue and shadows stretching diagonally along the frame..

Naughty boy if it needed something then that is a sign you need to re shoot so it can stand on its own as a picy. This might work really well if you used the glowing edges filter in PS. ............................Than post it in the retouch forum:-)hehe

Sorry about the frame Rod, I just felt it needed something. -Doug
