Woo! Been working on this for hours how... total time i would guess to be like 4 or so roughly (forget exactly when i started lol)

Any way I got inspired by looking at :RiniMac:'s little postcard thing (found here: [link]) so i decided to do a water themed one of my own.

Very fantasy themed, mystic fog (or maybe not so mystic...), at night, with a magical portal.... little.. uhh... whatever they are sparkling about... yeah dang do i feel like i thought this out now.... meh... 2:30 am gimmie a break... i might edit tomarrow with a short backstory or something if any one wants.... otherwise, just enjoy.


Photos used: A realllllly crap one i took of my self... might submit tomarrow to my scraps so you guys can see just how bad it really was......ohhhhh dang was it bad! lol

yeah actually the portal wasnt originally intended but when i was doing the blending layers for the main image itself (the ground) it got all glowing looking and stuff over there so i figured... hey why not have a fire sorta thing there? well that fire turned into a portal and the red didnt work well so i inverted and like an hour later i finally got it looking how it does now lol

The sparkles are cool, a bit of a pain to make colored and have it turn out right at times though but all the same worth it in the end (plain white ones look boring =/)

oh this is so pretty and mystical.
there is a darker blue section over to the left where its not so white, and that just makes it look even better ^_^

Heh thanks :) The original was pretty mundane and boring all around, but darken things down a bit and add in some special effects and 'twinkles'.... amazing what happens =D
