Others echoes... inhabit the Garden

a shot of the little 'french' garden behind a little church I found... a usual it's a heavy manip. I changed pretty much everything: the colors the lighting, added some birds and changed the sky... I don't know if the 'red' fog is quite working... so don't hesitate to tell me if you think it doesn't^^. Thanks for looking

I love the red fog. Makes the piece more surreal and ethereal. The over all feeling is otherworldly. Some great stuff you got going!

oooooooh I love it, the red smoke could also be a ray of light wich gives a whole new atmosphere. The frame gives me the feeling of peeking into a window and seeing another world... well done

HOLY momma... That is amazing. You know, I generally love your works, but the colors here are beyond wow. THe subject choice is wow, and the idea is wow. Honestly, why do you have to be so good?!?!?!

Ok the red fog... hmm. It works but the contrast between the colours is a bit too high. In my opinion the whole image could be less saturated. The fog gives the image a nice feeling and actually what I don't like is how the image looks a bit flat in some parts. Like on the right where you have darkened some parts very much. The rocks look a bit weird too. Also the lower half of the pic is quite empty. Otherwise very good.... again :)

The red fog is good Lucy, but I can’t help wondering if yellow fog might fit the theme better. It’s a remarkable image with overtones of primeval times to my eyes. I half expect that rock to hatch into something big and hungry.

I like the fact that the red fog is there, but I think it could have been toned a little bit. The rest of the photo is pretty good

thanks guys^^

I'm a bit confused by the rocks comments... it's not rocks... just big pines or fir-tree^^... you know like the ones you can found in stylised french backyard^^

frenger : yeah the colors are a bit strong. especially the red. I tried to lessen it a bit but it didn't quite work or give the right mood I wanted.

Trisb : using yellow is a pretty good idea, I hadn't thought of that. I'll try it next time^^

I think it works perfectly just the way it is. It has a very mysterious/mystical air to it, entensified by the red fog. A keeper.

Lucy, you never let me down. Your imagination is very wild. I like the red plasma...maybe more of it. The "rocks" very much remind me of some rocks in a game called Black & White. Nice to see your work again.

A fine job with the added effects. This has a magical feel to it - and something is about to happen over by that red fog, which I like. The trees and bushes look fine with the lighting. The colour choices are just right for this scene and the birds you added look like they have spotted something. Lucy, your imagination was working fine on this image :))

I need to catch up on things so can't comment too much. But I love all of your fine images :)
