final rank: 2 out of 30 entries

This is my first entry here.

I used 2 external images (all are FREE from other websites):

*Sunset background (stretched/resized+hue/saturation+colorbalance)

*tree (delete background+multiply+resized)

I used a combination of HUE/ SATURATION and COLOR BALANCE to make the sand into green liked grass image and put the background after cutting the upper part of the image as well as the trees. I just played around the colors to make it more realistic plus the shadows.

Please let me know your suggestions and comments. THANKS. ^_^

Such a simple idea, but SOO effective! Good work.

Good concept. The background trees are obviously the same tree, would be better if they were different. The moss covered foreground stones are a nice touch, but the pine tree on the large one is totally out of scale.

Nice integration!

the trees in the background look a bit cut and pasted which is the only negative comment i have, i really like the out of scale tree sitting on the rock, although it is completely unproportional it fits in better than the other distant trees. That element creates quite a nice fantasy feel, it would have been good to explore that further in the scene, great work!

Hi,

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. I think your views are right, now i deleted the pine tree in that big stone and it looks more reallistic ( I guess).

And I also posted the source images for this contest per moderators request and regulation.

Let me know if you have any questions. And thanks everyone for the advices and compliments.
