Description

This is my first photomanipulation in roughly 4 years now. I tried too hard to make it perfect and ended up spending far longer on it than I initially intended to. I opted for a daytime scene at first, which had more color variety, but I decided that daytime manips were overused so I went the extra mile for a proper night scene. There is a strong underlying theme here that I may have been a tad too subtle with, but I think it's more rewarding this way.

Thanks a lot! I was fortunate to find such amazing stock really. I was going to use a small boat at first, but I decided to stay away from all man-made instruments (and no, the hat, pipe and scarf don't count lol) so nature's raft came in! Β

Very well done with so much stock, and so vibrant for a night scene . Its like an animal made ark, but i'ts not a flood they are trying to survive. It's us. One question.Where are the skeletons?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

SylversVolpe In reply to LoloAgain [2016-08-05 11:59:14 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Lolo, the concept of an animal made ark was definitely on my mind when I made this. As for the skeletons, I am guilty of trying to bury them in the water reef so as to make finding them more rewarding, haha sorry for that. The bear skeleton is mid center, the pelican's is underneath the green fish, and on its left is the monkey's ribcage. The red panda's skull is left bottom to the green/yellow fish, and the snake's spine is on it's left.

Actually, the placing and use of the skeletons wasn't random, I went further and I added the monkey's red scarf to the bottom-most left, and the pelican's hat and pipe to the bottom right, I wanted to suggest a foreshadowing of what the potential fate for this particular group of animals is, if things remain as they are.

Oh, thank you so much for the kind words! Β  It means a lot to me to hear you say that. It was utterly exhausting to render, color manage and light so many different stocks. I only realized that I'd gone overboard with the number of stocks when I was was writing the credits,Β  that's 70+ stocks/brushes credits I think. Thanks again! Β
