Thank you, guys!

nice idea, only nitpick is that the clouds overlapping the moon wouldnt be as transparent, they tend to get darker in the contrast of the moonlight. Just as they do at the base of the sunset.

Good luck...good effort.....nice idea.

nice work

For some reason reminds me a bit of Donnie Darko . Perhaps I'd make the guy's shadow a tiny bit darker and give the suite a little bit of yellow photofilter. If you want you can give the guy a tiny blur (you can experiment easier with it if you make a smart object from the head and body) and also add a layer (with blending overlay) with some tiny grain noise, so it fits better with the quality of the background photo. Good luck!

EDIT: good improvement imo

Thank you so much for the suggestions, Waz! A bit of Film Grain really helped. I couldn't get the color filter to cooperate, but using Selective Color and adjusting the neutrals to have a bit more yellow and a bit less cyan seemed to do the trick.

This is looking great. I agree that the shadow of the man needs to be darker. Overall a nice creepy image. Love the description.

Not too shabby. Nice work.

great image, good luck!

Nice blending, GL
