Hi JG firstly welcome to the site.

Your question is one that gets asked regular here and most other lesser photoshop sites out there:mrgreen:

In answer it is a mixture of photographic talent, lighting awareness and usage of it, mixing real images with illustrations at times in a manner that renders them as one, layers with varying light and colour tone adjustments applied and a visionary approach to creating new and unseen images in this style.

We have a world famous artist here at times in this specific field of work, her name is Cindy Grundsten, she creates amazing images all in photoshop if my memory serves.

Saying that your image is by Vladimir Fedotko another excellent artist in this field, he is a photographer also.
