Wonderfull job Eggy! the guy and the rock perfecly blended, for me cut be a actual photo, the fire dont like it, seems fake.. and the girl i think is because of the white sunrise light in his back what does it a little bit off for me.

Cheers!

Thanks Argos.
I had to find something to make the lighter part of the girl back believable, so I placed a campfire on her back. I could make the light more orange to fit the fire.

Another excellent composite Eggy! :thumbsup:
With perfect blending, lighting and reflections.

I just noticed two small things...easy to take care of.
1. The horizon is slightly overcorrected.
2. Delete the light buoy, it disturbs the peaceful atmosphere.

These are only my personal preferences.

Thanks Chris.

I've pulled out a guideline and I see now that indeed the horizon is overcorrected.
Maybe the buoy is disturbing.
I'll see to correct those suggestions.

It's a good idea, the problem with the campfire i think is the diference in quality and focus in comparation with the guy and girl.

Edit: Some faint light around the campfire too.
