Fantastic work. Just one thing: The Earth looks a bit too bright compared to the dark background. Maybe darken a bit. GL !

The idea is so much better than the execution. The masking of the earth showing under the cover is actually very sloppy. I would actually add some more contrast to the earth below.. andmake some light shadow to the 'holes' to give some depth. Anyways, the overall masking needs a lot of more work.

Gonna vote later, if you decide to work on this.

It's a great idea, but i do agree with Widair, rough selections are quite obvious especially in high resolution. I would also suggest lowering the number of stars in the sky, it seems a bit clustered at the moment. Good luck

Thanks lamantine, widiar and ponti55 for nitpick. I have corrected some masking issue. Hope it is ok now.,

what a great idea! i agree about contrast, maybe make the whole image a bit darker? a step by step would be great too

that is really amazing. stunning creativity you executed this perfectly!

Thanks elficho and CrystleClear. elficho, SBS uploaded.

It's a lot better already. For the biggest 'hole' in there you should mask the left edge better. If the weave/ribbon is broken, just copy paste a new solid ribbon for the edge part and mask it carefully to blend in. Some more contrast (and a bit darker background stars) and maybe an overall inner shadow for the whole globe with quite large choke and size to make it even more 3D .. it doesn't have to be a strong shadow, but quite big. Also check the masking for the leftmost waterfall. Either hide the left edge or make sure the water falls from the 'hole', like with the rest of the picture.

I'm glad you're working on this, already so much better.

kevinice95, thanks for comment but you can't erase background in this source by simply background eraser. I always use masks. In this case I have used color range selection tool, then refine some edges manually.

Widiar thanks again for observing very closely my work. Have made some changes.

Wonderful!
This entry makes me wonder that we always waste water (bad use, pollution, etc.)

yes i agree i had the same idea in vegie close up whit new earth new life
