Thanks to Lisajen~Stock from Deviant Art!

Edit:
Special thanks to OliviasArts for pointing out my raven sources weren't allowed - i've reuploaded the image, this time using bats.
Thanks also to GolemAura for helping me out.

I personally don't like it as much as the first one, but i think that bats make the image a little darker. (5 years and 3525 days ago)

Nice dark & moody scene! would agree the lady is a perfect find you may want to bring her levels up a touch as she is pretty dark compared to the rock she is next too.

author says:

I was thinking about lightening her up, but then i took to account the rest of the rocks, and also her skin tone - she's pretty pale already, so i thought i'd just leave it as that. Thanks

This is gorgeous! I really love the clouds and the boosted contrast. I also like the ravens' extended feathers -- definitely succeeds in making it feel otherworldly. Something you might consider for the future would be to make a stronger distinction between foreground and background, e.g. the woman looks rather big compared to the large rock face because it's a little difficult to see that she's much closer. Maybe a few larger plants in the foreground to contrast with some smaller ones over by the rock would help communicate the sense of depth.
