So this is the hand of Zeus. Zeus is the go of the sky and king of the gods in Greek mythology. So here is my SBS:
1. Add stone hand to cloud scene.
2. Resize and adjust both photos.
3.Smudge end of hand so it looks like its coming from the clouds.
4. Add lightning.Smudge to make more 3D looking.
5. Darken the clouds with burn tool. Also darkened hand.
6. Created layer over cloud scene and cnahged layer property to "multiply".
7. Colored in the hand a fleshy color.

I changed the perspective of the paving so it more matched the angle of the boots (thank you vierdrie aka Jean Scheijen for the pic of the boots), masked out the white in the boots and added some smoke (thank you celeborn_p for the great pic of the smoke) to the insides of the boots by making the smoke a multiply layer to hide the white background
