The girl and the pelican

This is my first try at merging 2 pictures in photoshop.  I hope you like it.

Count me in - I definitely like it.
There's an innocence to this image which evokes a place and time. Imagination and clever use of the tools before you, have produced a striking result. Well done Christoph - very well done.

Very nice, love the effect, well done!

[Cher and Ross]

I think its a great effort....well done!

[Derek]

For a first attempt you did exceptionally well. Very nice.

[Ross and Cher]

Very well done indeed! But you should add it to the gallery so it can be in the voting!!!!

Thanks Ross for the reminder. I assume you meant to add it to my personal gallery.  I've just done that.

And thank you everybody for your positive comments.  It's good to get confirmation of your own feeling about a picture.  After all, you are always biased when you look at your own results.

Christoph - not sur how you posted originally but looks to me like you started a thread in the forum under the competition topic and attached your image - this means that it doesn't show in the comp gallery (where all the voting takes place) - go to gallery (top right of the page, scroll down to the competition galleries etc etc! When you post into galleries (other than personal galleries) the system will automtically generate a thread in the forum!

I am not sure why I did not make the same mistake in the 3rd challenge.  My pictures did not show up in either the 1st or the 2nd challenge.  This has been rectified thanks to your help.  Thanks again.
