This is really coming along. I think the black circle really sets the other colors off, and the sky has a nice fade with the silhouette of the horizon.
The figures on the left are mysterious, and add something to the narrative aspect. I would suggest trying to add more silhouetted figures and objects to see if you can extend this.
I must say that this looks so pretty. I really like the colors that you used. To me, is seems as if there's more focus on the land on the horizon (the foreground) because of your use with bright saturated colors. You're eyes will always be moving in that area but they'll always be drawn back to the neutral colors of the sky.
I think the black eclipse needs something to give it dimension and make it seem 3-D--it is very flat at the moment. I don't know what to suggest you do to it but it's an area I think you can improve. I also like the Professor's idea of adding more silhouetted figures.
Looking at it again, I agree with Margo. I enjoy the deep black tone that the circle sets up, but it could be a little more dimensional. Perhaps you could add a layer underneath of a sphere (or planet) and very subtly fade into the black? The other option to play around with is the "Bevel and Emboss" either directly on the circle or on another layer. You can find that if you double click on the circle layer.
The black circle is in such sharp contrast with the rest of the image that it works on some levels. I feel that to go along with the rest of the image, however, it does need some texture or deep hues swirling... I love the image though! and the color palette
Love the colors, great depth too!
ReplyDeleteMe to, the colors are gorgeous!!!
