hmmm.....you can draw in birds, but not stars. I'll have to remember that. I guess birds don't fit in to the category of "ALL elements". (Nothing against the drawer of the birds. I just think it's a bad call.)

Beautiful work, Rebecca.

Masterfully done! The stars look a bit odd, but the colors are just great.

the photoshopped stars take away from the picture...

Well this is not bad but still, the lighting on those baloons look totall off compared to the surroundings, I mean where is the light that is coming on them from the front coming from? Judging by the scene and the sun coming ove those hills they should be backlit, not frontlit like they are. Unless of course you had a third baloon up there with strobe lighting on the other two :)

Just saying you gotta think about stuff like lighting when doing composites, at least if you want it to look realistic. Nice shot despite my little rant there so I gave a 6.

Nice shot, however cool it is too see the stars the really distract the eye. Good luck

This is a nice shot and you have done well with your positioning of the subject. Pity that it is just slightly out of focus in some areas. Would and could have been a ribbon winner if the DOF was slightly better and allowed the entire subject to be focused.
