Really well done. The only reason I didn't vote as high as most other voters (I gave you a 6) is the blending of sky and land, where a clear white transition is quite distracting. But overall a very nice image. Congrats on the Yellow.

hey Girish .. are you saying that the stars in the sky were added in the preset .. and weren't from your photos ..
i was under the impression that anything we used in an extended edit ... and that had a big effect on the image .. would have to be from one of our own photos ..
like all the bokeh effects i add in my extended edits are from photos i've taken with the intention of adding them to my photos ..
very interested to hear about this one .. :)

thankyou so much for looking .. but i dont think its a march fly because of the large gap between its eyes ..
i'm pretty sure the march flies eyes are very close together .. think that's a sign of meanness in humans .. lol .. maybe in flies too .. ;)

edit to say ... of course i'd googled it .. and the front of the face itself looks quite different from the march flies .. :)
