Not looking too much like a city.. but i think it looks great. try darkening the base of the cathedral just to help it blend a little better. G'luck!

great use of so many sources

Beautiful colours and so nicely done image!

Nicely done.

you did a great job, but it looks a little creepy for heaven

beautiful colors, nice mood, I love it!

great Great GREAT take on the theme of this contest... super high marks for originality alone.. great JOB AUTHOR!!!!!

submarine add on made it my FAV!!!.. hehehe

How is that a city? I see some chips from a computer board in a cube.... i think o.o buty eh really original, floating on the water

akassa.. it's a BORG cube city (that's how I see it) but I'm a sci fi geek LOL

beatifull beatifull beatifull,good work

hmm i don't quite know how i would consider this a city maybe add some sighns of life by showing crafts coming of the surface ?

Your cube dimensions need work? Especially the front corner.. Not square to me..

EDIT: Much better now!

gud work. all the best...

Fantastic.... perfectly and expertly made.. good luck!

great idea ! Great job, would love to see SBS

thanks to "sundesign" for source 1 and "pixpix80" for source 2

What a cute city. Probably this is the inhabitat of special computer chip bugs which can drive green submarines

Doesn't look like it's floating...maybe move it up?

I agree with CMYK, maybe also try brightening it up?

Hahaha - I have uploaded this 4 times already trying to tweak the brightness. Its fine in PS, but as soon as I upload it - it gets very dark?

hey you have that brightness problem too? but yea it would look more like it's floatin if it where actualy in the sky good job besides from that

its too dark to really see it o.o;

for me it's bright enough becaus i always keep my screen at maximum brightness but i'd imagine that for the average viewer here it would be too dark try using adjustmet layers to bump up contrast and brightness

It was super dark before... now I can see it perfectly.. must of been a glitch.. Now I can give high High HIGH MARKS... hehehe (and I've got the worst eyes of the lot) great job

i see you made some changes, much more enjoyable. that blue ray-thing looks pretty cool. but for my taste the city is pretty small compared to the large background, and lights are a bit weird.

Looks amazing!

Looks good to me. Great effect of the blue rings

A hi res would be nice.. but without it - hard to tell, are those factories or hangars in the front needed/. Maybe colour match them to the background buildings? I would remove the lightning too - it just looks incomplete..

hey Animax...thanks for the comment...i have adjusted the lighting...

that young plant is HUGE!

I agree with elficho, try enlarging it and bringing it closer to the camera to make it look like it's closer.. maybe even blur it a bit to show depth.

another thing you could do is burn and dodge the city using the mountain you turned upside down as a reference

Hi elficho....thanks for your comment. I have trimmed the plant now...!

i think the focus is the problem... the little rock with the plant looks like it's right next to the big one. that makes the plant seem very unrealistic (i know, i know the image is unreal but this is silly). the one thing i think might help is (lens) blur. blur the plant and it's rock or blur the city. not too much! just to get that feel of depth. both can't be in focus.

hi all i understand that that plant is not suitable...but imaginatio has no end. The plant was not far behind, it was a small base which is down safe from the destroying world. The concept is one world is getn destroyed, while other is born. got it..!!! cheers...! anyway thanks for your suggestions.

good thought. you can adjust the overall lighting, so that it dont look like manipulated from different image. You try to give a dark or night effect, coz the lights in the building are ON .

you should darken or burn the rock on the bottom

The image looks fantastic, except for the rock at the bottom. Try doing what Elficho says, just to try and make it fit in. Good luck!!

good work...gl
