Salam latif!
That would be interesting! I didn?t get which organization will sponsor this exhibition?
Is there any specific title or theme for it?
Which images do you think I should submit if I joined?
Are there some rules or papers I have to fill?
LOL so many questions!

Excellent perspective even though my neck now hurts and I am walking in a really funny way ;-)
Super photograph, I never would have thought to take a shot like this. It is so creative !
But for me, once again, it is the toning that is so special - both this and your other upload the toning is unique.
Superb work :-)
Best wishes,
Steve

I would shrink or stretch it to a square format. Everything else is on the spot IMHO...

Hi Arwa,
my personal suggestion to improve your image:
rotate it 180 degrees !!!
...eheheheh..you know, i love to be a prankster sometimes..;-)
ehm..cough,..seriously (now i'm wearing the Oxford teacher dress) i think it's a pleasant BW, with a strong tones ,wich perfectly match the fearful look on the model's face....moreover, a very nice model, i dare to say!
Good work Arwa!!
take care my friend
Giorgio

Dear Arwa, Very creative as usual. Smart idea. IMO I like the straight B / W on this one more. Thanks for adding me as a friend. I would do so also but right now I'm not a donor so I can't do anything with my friends list. Money's not a problem. (I was a donor but I feel I've been treated unfairly on UF a few times (and a few times they were right) so I'll wait and see. There's some on the staff that don't like my views. Not Al - the top guy - though, he's a good guy). It's a matter of principle with me. Always enjoy your work and it's great to have this international community on UF - that's probably my favorite aspect of it. Take care, Mark

This one is really good, too, Arwa! I understand what you're saying about the bubbles - I don't like that fake look either. That said, the way you changed the bottom-left in this image ended up looking a lot like bubbles to me! Now I have to say I like them both, because I also liked the girl in the background of the original, another person on the shore seen from beneath...
Great work - I admire your imagination!

You seem to be having fun with this picture. It is a fun shot,out of the box(or maybe I should say upside down in the box :) I prefer this version but also like your idea of more bluish hue. I borrowed it and did simple steps to get aqua tone and liked the more water feel. What program do you use? You're coming up with some creative work.

Hello Arwa,
I still continue to appreciate more the other, it's more dynamic, it seems a scene where the children are playng and for a while someone stop in front of your lens looking as when he found a tresoury.
This new version loose part of this caotic sensation but...it's only my personal sensation ;)
Bye

Try this one: add a solid-color adj. layer blended with overlay, choose a color and set the opacity to something small like 10% (experiment with the values), then click on the mask icon beside the layer and paint with the brush over the areas you want painted in the image, or erase the areas you don't want to be painted with this color.

Do you know the way you use the layers to add colors, I?ve tried it many times but it didn?t work
It would be nice to have almost the same tonal effect of this photograph but with a bluish hue! Its one of my favorites ;)

Salam Arwa, why do you think it's flat? it seems to have all tones from white to black and more on the dark side. I think it's very suitable and I like it. Do you have a specific look in mind?

Hello fadel!
thank you for the comment I do appreciate it but... I would like some tips of how to improve the tones, they seem a bit flat, any tips if you have the time :?>
