A Surreal Moment in Time

Description

EDIT: I erased some of the excess background that was around the orca to make it cleaner and moved him a layer down so that he fits in and doesn't stand out as the first thing to catch the eye. :P


:boogie: This was my second project for my Graphic Design class in using Photoshop. :D I learned a few more interesting things such as lighting and masking. :D Still have to work on the masking technique though ^^;

Anyway I wanted to include a lot of other things but couldn't for two reasons: one, we were supposed to have real things in unreal situations. I was going to have a Liopleurodon or Elasmosaurus up in space with a police vest thing on it. :XD: but since it was a drawing (we only could use photos in this project) and not "real" I couldn't use it. Plus, it may have made the picture too "busy" which is not good either :lol: ;)

This is my second surreal project I've done, with Bring me that treasure... being the first. :D Both of them are interesting in their own ways. :nod: Everytime I complete one though, I think Man I want to do such and such next as a surreal theme...:/ but of course there's always something to prevent that from happening. :P :shrug:

I believe I used all stock images for this one, except for the forest and space background which was an HD wallpaper desktop picture. :P But since I'm not going to sell or make any kind of profit out of it, I should be fine. :fingerscrossed:
