Surreal

I had so much fun doing a "surreal" piece for the Artarazzi challenge this week. I have never done this sort of thing before, so had a look at lots of examples and decided to try my own.
I used an image by Vladimir Kush as my base, and downloaded random photos from Stock Exchange, to try to make an image that was pleasing to the eye.

I call it "The Hand of God"

This was my first go...



This was my second go after tweaking it a bit more.

Not sure which I like best... I just had FUN!

I think the first works best for me...colours are more tranquil. Very clever, wish I knew how.

The first is my favorite. Some of the details are lost in the dark of the second. I like the concept, and the feeling is definitely surreal! Great work, Vron!
