Attention, citizens of Elftown, a new challenge awaits you! A castle reflecting in the water, a shiny floor, a mirror palace, someone's worst nightmare reflecting in their eyes, colorful rays of light broken by cristal, these are the images we are looking for. So be a careful observer and create the most beautiful and realistic looking reflection you can!

The rules:
- No photo manipulations (sorry!)
- No standard Photoshop tools like light flares or mirroring or anything
- No pictures that have been in other contests on Elftown before
- And don't break any Elftown rules!
- Only 1 entry per person, so enter your best work!

Deadline: July 1st

Prize: A nice badge or a request

This contest idea was democratically elected from Contest Ideas.
Have fun!
~[Saffron]

6. [amuletts] *cringes* I really don't like still life but I'm guilty of this. I can see all kinds of horrible errors in it *cringes again* Oh well, there is a reflection, all be it a distorted one. Don't listen to me. I ramble. Frequenty. And you didn't need to know any of that!

10. [stuffAEAmade] Goodbye ~ not finished; I wanted to get something up tho
I don't know if this really fits the criteria, but it's what popped into my mind.
Saffron (right) and Cinnamon (left) are twins and have been inseperable their entire lives, but since most of their techniques required that they look absolutely identicle, they were forced to split up as the grew older.
I almost made myself cry drawing this...

2004-09-21 [mywolfalways]: I'm unsure, but I think I've seen entry 4 in a contest before.

2004-09-21 [jamesipoo]: Lol i just started elfwood so nope never been in any contest b4,that would be stupid to put in some one elses work....

2004-09-21 [Saffron]: hm maybe I should have said there has to be a bit more to a picture than just an eye...

2004-09-21 [mywolfalways]: I thought I saw something like it in the "eye" contest. Can't remember exactly what that one was called.

2004-09-22 [jamesipoo]: This is my first contests and I didnt take anyones drawing if i was gonna take a drawing it would of been a better one then the one i drew believe me.....

2004-09-22 [Saffron]: that's not the problem, but just look t rule #3 up there, apparently I did specify something about pictures that have been in other contests before... but I checked the art of eyes contest, and obviously it's not the case

2004-09-22 [Narnian Queen]: Ive just remebered I have a reflection one...Ill go get it...but is not very good.

2004-09-23 [mywolfalways]: Maybe I just saw it in your house before, [jamesipoo]. I apologize for my mistake.

2004-09-23 [jamesipoo]: its ok:)

2004-09-24 [miss la la la]: Wow look at the 5th picture that looks awsome!

2004-09-24 [Tiezu Star]: . . . hardy har har . . .LOL j/p Devils . . . its good

2004-09-24 [Saffron]: wow the first full-color reflection is here ^^

2004-09-28 [jamesipoo]: devils red chii i think that pictures awsome!

2004-10-02 [jamesipoo]: this thing ever gonna be over?

2004-10-02 [Saffron]: ¬¬ no... there are hardly any entries you know... and some people might need some time to come up with something good

2004-10-03 [jamesipoo]: ied say devils red chii and silver unicorn have good pictures

2004-10-03 [jamesipoo]: also amuletts

2004-10-09 [Saffron]: ooh a reflecting sphere, nice idea!

2004-11-01 [Tiezu Star]: y is vry 1 doin an eye?

2004-11-02 [Saffron]: my guess is because I mentioned it above and there's been en eye contest before and because they lack originality o.O' I should submit an example picture soon, though there already are a couple of good examples in the entries ^^

2004-11-02 [Tiezu Star]: ahhhhhhhhh

2004-11-06 [Sue Falkenkralle]: @[Sunny Silverunicorn] so it's ok to upload a white/black picture, and color it later (of couse before the contest is over)? I don't know if I can finish the coloring in time, thats why I asked

2004-11-06 [Sunny Silverunicorn]: well no one has really asked for a colored version. I just have mentioned that I will color it cause that's how I originally enter my works in the contests. If the contest has more time for me, I enter the balc and white version and then the colored version before the deadline has been reached. :)

2004-11-06 [Saffron]: well, a finished picture would be nicer, yes, but please, do put your sketches up, because that way I can see if you're working on something! ^^

2004-11-06 [Sunny Silverunicorn]: yes, that's exactly what I meant to say. :)

2004-11-17 [Chrilith of Akhai]: Damn. My colours completely suck. I only draw in B&W. Everybody is so much better! Nooooo! You colouring guys really make me jealous.

2004-11-20 [Pillowthief]: Do we get to vote?

2004-12-07 [Red_Queen]: no photo manipulations , but what about actuall photos that you've produced in a dark room? ive got some cool reflection one sof those

2004-12-28 [kduncan]: Any idea when this contest is going to close? I have a painting I did a while ago I'd like to entre, but it's far too big to scan, I'll have to photograph it, then fill up the rest of the film, then get it developed.. you know the routine.

2004-12-28 [Saffron]: this contest will still be here for a while

2004-12-28 [kduncan]: Cool.. thanks.

2005-01-19 [M. P. Ness]: There a deadline for this one yet?

2005-01-23 [Saffron]: nope, or else I'd have told you

2005-01-23 [Saffron]: need to make example picture ><

2005-03-25 [Saffron]: ohhh it's beautiful! ^^

2005-03-25 [syagre]: *ahem* I don't know if you were refering to my entry... but in case you are interested, I've more landscapes artworks of mine at Altaride's landscapes

2005-03-25 [dracos8]: those are done in bryce, right? ^ ^ it's a good program

2005-03-25 [syagre]: No, it was done with another program called "Terragen". It's excellent. At least, it allows me do draw nice photorealistic pics though I'm not that good at drawing... *grins*

2005-03-28 [dracos8]: lol, yeah, i understand how that is. thats cool though. my dad really wants that program. we have bryce, but he says terragen is much much better for the details and how it deals with the renders

2005-03-29 [Tiezu Star]: OMG! i really need to get a new pic up in here. i looked at it and was like, "That pic is so old, i dont even draw like that nemore! LOL

2005-05-20 [Saffron]:
