First I decided to keep ant inside then suddenly I kept 2 Swans. I deleted one and kept in lotus.

if you flipped the swan (and cup) it would follow the pattern of shadow of the lily (Light is hitting the back of the swans neck) and flipping it would make the swan face the inside of the creation as opposed to looking out of the picture..(a bit of dark faded disk under cup would give you a grounding shadow).. just a suggestion.. Peeps are such a stickler for shadow accuracy.. the overall image is quite lovely.. (you could even mask out the original shadow of the source and reduce it's opacity and place it into the image (pin light would be an easy add on)

Good luck and IMHO

Thank you for your remarks..i am just being use to photoshop..lot more to learn . I will consider your suggestion and work more ....thank you very much .

It would be better if you would make cup actually pressed in liliy

Thank you I will Take care next Time....

Keep it up..Best of Luck..

nice idea but the refection is from your source 1 not the contest source also there does not appear to be a refection of the boat

please show an sbs, so we know where the source is being used

My immediate reaction to this image was "Oh, look, a reflection of Mt. Fuji!" (just a guess). It turns out that I was right on, but then you must be right off (as Alan2641 noted) unless the point of the image is to portray a mountain with delusions of grandeur--but that's not what's indicated by the bland title. And where's the source (to echo happyme27)?

The source is the mountain in the top of the background...My question is where did the city in front of the mountains come from? Where's the link for that source? High res would also be great author....Love the idea

Christy, the city is from the Mt Fuji image, but it is difficult to see on the link, you need to open the high res to see it.

really good idea to mix those two images. I think it can be done better though. Try to dodge the skull and horns around the edges like the bug is to match the photography style. Also the camera was focused only on a small area, so that means that anything out of that area would be slightly out of focus, your horns and skull are almost in perfect focus, so its not matching up. You still have 27 hours!!!
