    Default Theme: Christmas Card

    Combined a shots of Snow Geese crossing the moon at Sacramento NWR with a shot of some redwoods taken in my front yard. Applied some filters. I can't recall which to the redwoods and then I used the brush tool to make the stars.

    God bless,

    nice nice rendering Chris.....well thought out IMO.
    Might try a bit more variation in the twinkling stars.....size and brightness, but
    sweet as is too

    Nice image and application, Chris.

    I might have straightened the tree below the moon a little. Know it is probably the effect, but it is just slightly distracting.

    The word "majestic" comes to mind- a real sense of wonder and beauty conveyed. The deep blue is perfect for the composition. Yes. I might agree that the stars could be more varied....but this a stylized piece, so they work this way too.
