Description It's a really long time that I had this idea in mind, and now I've finally done it ^^
I wanted the background - the orca and the sea - to be something like an illusion, but I don't know if I succeeded XD

And I have to say that I'm finally out of my art block (or so it seems) and so I'll be able to finish my drawings soon :3

And as usually, seeing as this is my second photomanipulation ever, please tell me if something needs to be fixed

Stock I've used:
Horse: [link] by =larfsalot
Orca: [link] by ~Gemz76-stock
Wave: [link] by ~grace-stock
Some details are painted

Beautiful colour harmony. Very surreal, arid.
The only thing is the horizon isn't quite level.
For your second go at photo manipulation this is awesome

HippieVan57 [2009-07-19 18:49:58 +0000 UTC]

great idea and nice work, everything fits in so well together. i like the way ya left the bottom part brownish, it breaks up the blue tones quite well i think, oh and the way ya did the horses mane and tail. they look nice, i'm not sure how ya did it but i'm terrible with those

SpieGirl [2009-07-08 11:17:46 +0000 UTC]

Amazing piece! Especially because its only your second manipulation ever. Stunning.

Yes, you did get the background/orca looking like an illusion, but perhaps add a layer effect to get a bit more highlights, or dreamlike glow.

Also, because the horse and background are so blue, i would have added a filter or something to the sand - its too brown, and makes the composition unbalanced.

overall, stunning work - i'm heading off to check out the rest of your gallery.

This is awesome! Makes me think of a similar art I saw on DA a long time ago. There was an orca in the water and a phoenix in the air.
great job!

This is amazing! I love the colours of this and the way the orca is slightly faded in the background.
