Artist's Comments

This has been a long time coming, my first crack at getting back into photomanipulation. There is another one in the piplines as well, which I like a lot better as a concept, so look out for that coming about sometime soon. For now, here is something I was inspired to do back in September on a trip to the Christchurch area of Southern New Zealand. I had been skiing with friends at Mt Hutt near Christchurch, and we took a day trip out to a fantastic gorge/canyon sort of area. Anyway the landscape is mostly a photo I took with my rather low quality digital camera... The rest is stock from other people.

Very cool dude,
I love the fog, it seems so real & tangable, I can almost see it moving and feel myself gasping for breath.
Great stuff. :nod:

Thanks a lot, for the comment of approval and the :+fav: as well.

Took me a while to get everything right, as it was my first take at Photomanipulation for a while
But I'm pretty well happy with the end result, glad to hear you like it as well.
