No match
A new art piece I finished. Not a photo-manipulation. All hand drawn.

I recently found an app that changes my background wallpaper based on the current weather, and I've spent the past hour replacing the default, low-res pictures with wallpapers from IFL. When I first saw the default "tornado" pic, I was about to give up because—come on—why the hell would I care how my wallpaper looks during a tornado? Now that I've seen this work of art, I'm actually kind of hoping for a tornado!

Awesome illustration! I love the light reflecting off of the tornado, nice imagination you have!

I think it's kinda wierd. Not your typical weather phenomenon. But hey, it's a heck of a lot better than I could do!

Stunning piece, though it seems a lot darker after recent events.

i wouldn't call it finished, but it certainly looks like you've put work into it. the duplicated clouds make it look cheesy, and it's obvious that it's the only thing in the photo that you didn't actually do. the buildings look like obvious black rectangles and could use some work as well. keep it up

Ok I'm not sure what I have caused here but seems to be a lot of tension and arguments. I want to clarify a few things of course. I don't know what HDR is as I just ordered my LX3 and have not taken any courses in photography at all but hopefully I will in time. I'm not a famous artist and not that established but I am quite versed in digital arts and web designs. I have had a long gap in the drawing community as shown karnjerrylow.deviantart.com Not sure if this would help anything but here's the layer breakdown http://www.fusedeffects.com/Ayu/The-Giant-Layer-Breakdown.jpg

Very nice. I was going to say, if this were "hand drawn", I wouldn't expect you to be posting it here on IFL. More likely, you would be quite famous in the art world and displaying it in an exhibition somewhere.

Simply beautiful. I cannot wait to see what else you will be sharing with us.

This is the first time I'm seeing a hand drawn picture on Ifl. Very good effort. Cheers.

Wow, this pic brought a lot of commentators out of the woodwork. Nice to have the participation. I was wondering where some of you went. Good to know you're still around.

No words. If I was your teacher at school, A+ or 10.0 for sure. ;-)

Good job! Nice composition, dramatic color scheme. But the believability suffers due to the multiple duplications of clouds.

Yes, I'm going to have to say there are absolute standards of beauty. Go ask Kant. ;) Also -- and I mean no offense -- I think this piece still qualifies as photo-manipulation, on account of photos having been used in its creation (i.e: the clouds).

Djozz, I certainly do not want to start a flame war. Things got nasty a while back and IFL suspended this forum. Having said that, I think your comments have merit. Not to sound pedantic but styles and tastes do change. Hopefully they are cyclical and in time will return to what you cherish most. Are there absolute standards of beauty, truth and photographic excellence? Go ask Plato. Today we must live with data-reduced audio and video. Moreover, in audio dynamic range has been thrown to the wayside for the sake of loudness. From what I've thus far seen, HDR produces similar results when overused in photography. Could you imagine watching a movie filmed in HDR--headache city! Hold tightly to your principles. Hopefully IFL will hold tightly to its with an ever-opened eye to quality and virtuosity. Now, move a little bit to the left. lower your chin and say cheese. Got it; thank you.

it's a nice wallpaper and the creator has some good skills. but in general, for me, the quality of interfacelift is getting worse and worse! I've checked this site for a long time now. I used to come back here for it's beautiful wallpapers, which were made by good photographers. now all i see is blown out, oversaturated HDR photos and totally unrealistic photoshopped images. not that they aren't good, but were is the simple photography art?! or am i at the wrong address for this?

Love it.
