    Here is one more surreal image... I took a photo of two snowys' fighting on a small patch of rock. The taller one literally kicked the other one out. For the background I used gradient and applied flood. Hope you like it...

    Indranil, The colors and composition are fantastic! Very surreal indeed!! The flood is a nice touch. My only recommendation is to make the small patch of rock look more in the water and not in back of the water.(Thanks to Dave Phillips for pointing that out to me)The easiest way I found is to clone some water in the back and use the smudge tool at low opacity to soften the straight lines a bit.

    Hope that helps. Be sure to scroll all the way down.

    Love the gradient colours you have chosen and the Long Legs!!! Nice and simple composition which can often be the most effective.

    Indranil, I like your idea and use of imagination. The repost really made it a winner. Love the colors, concept, and execution.

    Indranil,

    This is a very solid image. Like the isolation of the subjects and tonality of BG.
