crop , topaz denoiz , clone tool , brightness on the cross and ground, (hi pass filter , blend mode layers strong light for more detalls ) the orthodox priest is other image is from other image .
my opinion was to put him here to add in the story with the cross .

Another great photoshop skill Kostas, very clean. I like your idea of putting the priest with the cross to add more story. I also like the beautiful sunset tone in the background. I might add a little more room the left since the priest is very near the frame edge.
Very nice composition. I actually like the walkers in the image and think of them as adding contrast of maturity vs. youth and I think, "How will those young boys end up?" Just my knee-jerk reaction.
One technical issue, his "tail" has a light or something in it that you might want to eliminate.
thank u so much for the replys all ... it is 2nd time i make this image , the first was a manth a go about ... and i had clone the walkers , from what i read now , it seems i was right the first time .... the idea with the priest came last ... thank u so much again all ....
P.S. some times some photoshop workers when they work with siluetes they prefere to give this halo around .. special if the image dark , i think it is all in the personal taste , some likes it some not ... Kostas .
