Ohh, don't forget it's a badly compressed images by website. And for your information, two group of judges missed this "fact". Got throudh judging and won awards. Can you point out where this blurrines is? I shot at F16.

Behind The Lens

Location

This is a composite image. It took me about 18 hours in Photoshop. My idea was about Brexit with the 50's feel. Briefly I added clouds, had to zoom in and cut the shape of the parliament out then clean the road then added cars. It was fun to play with perspective but wasn't easy with angels too plus colour balance. The fire was created with action and had to try a few version of each go. For the bag, I needed to fill up with pounds, and that was fun too. I added shades and colour balanced it. I added my shot, the Gangster taken in my studio. For reality, I had to add some fire bits to the cigar and the small fire clouds on top. I needed to colour balance it and add a yellow glow for the face and the arm. I think the smoke at the bottom ads drama to the image, don't you think?
