I used a Fractalius photo of one of my sunsets that I posted here before as the background. Cut out and added the building. Everything else was added with brushes. Another fun one! Last, I used the emboss filter to add some depth.

Ok, I'm completely knocked out by this one! Wow! I love the background and all the spooky elements. I see black cats, ravens, a bat, skulls, a jack-o-lantern, and a skeleton. Did I miss anything? I only wish that the steeple weren't cut off. Great job!

Yeah, this is pretty much a WOW! Where on earth (or otherwise) do you get these buildings?
Hi Judy, knocked my socks off too! I love your creativity here and the firey, fracted sky knocks it outta the park! Fabulous work!
Thanks Kerry! I wish the steeple hadn't been cut off too, but that's the way it was.

There was another good one I thought I downloaded but don't have that I might use for one more if I can locate it again.
Thanks Andrew! Haven't seen you around here in a while! I hope you'll post some images, I always enjoy them.
This is spectacular!! I totally love the wild red sky surrounding all those cool, spooky elements. And that you put bits of red all throughout the image. Wonderful placement of the skeleton. Just too cool!!
Hi, Judy, I'm late to the show but another WOW!! The fiery background really makes the image

yes to all the above! Love the fact that you blended your own images with googled ones. (not many of us would have a "real" haunted house in our portfolio) and this is one time I must say I like the frac effect. I"m still learning in that area. Not used to it yet, but well done here!
Thanks Nancy, Cheryl and Hazel! Hazel, I don't use Fractalius very much, I should start using it more.
Congratulations. this one is definitely spooky.
