Okay. I'm not sure how I feel about this one. I love it, I hate it, I love it... I'm up in the air. I think it would have been perfect if I had used two better matched pictures, but the cliff background was so much lower res than the horse, that shrinking the horse pretty much killed it. So yeah, it's got flaws, but just... look past them?
All in all I think it's nice. It took me FOREVER to get the background to suit me. I used about six layers for the background, cutting and chopping and cutting and chopping. So yeh, lots of layers!
But yer, here it is. Love it, hate it, whatever!
xox
This deviation is entered in to 's HOPE contest, which I feel that this image aptly represents.
And now for the important stuff:

Reborn and blown off roof
My view: about face whether, great will be done
I am a groundbreaker naive enough to believe this
destined to seek...
destined to know..."

I love the colors... sort of reminds of cross-processing, but I don't know if that's what you did here..
Great job on the background.. it's really cool. Though I don't know if the stars in the water were intended ;D
Good luck with that contest

Thanks.
There actually isn't water, though I know that's what it looks like. Well, I suppose it could be water, but it was originally a snowy landscape And yeah, the stars were intentional, because it ties it all together.
Thanks for the comment though! I appreciate it. <3
