    This would probably be better for Halloween! I started with a shot of a stairway, fract layer, a few hits of sideways wind, reduced opacity, created a layer for the owl face plus a dupe layer, fracted it and reduced opacity. I pumped up the Sat on the yellow eyes also:eek: Fun! C&C welcome!

    Dan, you are a crazy man - and I love it! This is way cool. This is not a place for small furry rodents... I love the idea and execution. It seems to me that the owl face and architectural elements are not in alignment. Seems like the owl wants to have a little CW rotation and the bg elements want to go a bit the other way. I think this would make that bright dome element at the top be directly above the owl. Just a thought though and maybe not what you had in mind.

    Dan, this looks like Egyptian God Ra in a Mayan temple... I am no Indiana Jones to walk up those stairs. Excellent creativity! Love the concept and the colors.

    Fantastic combination of elements, Dan. Very imaginative! The Owl's stair/stare is a killer.
