This is a photo-manipulation using 2 images, and a glass globe made completely in Photoshop using layer masking, filters, shading, and transparencies.

It is exactly where I would not want to be... trapped in a snow globe...it does seem to be a nice day to be aoutside though!

I just hope everyone likes the simplicity of this, and I think the globe actually looks like it belongs in the image...

nothing but the memory

Source only. Lots of masking and blending. A little cloning and some burning. Shadow a simply black oval with a lot of gaussian blur.

Someone had to do it!
