Description 2011 Contest Entry.
My entry for *harrybabeonhowrse 's, 'Interesting Angles' contest: [link]
I searched stock for so long for this piece.. And actually gave up a few times. Then I was browsing through new landscape stock.. and found this background and just had to use it.
It's incredibly simple, I know. I thought about trying to make it more complex by adding fantasy elements or making it more stylized, but I decided to go for realism instead.
I might replace this entry with another if I think of something more 'interesting'.. But for now, I am quite chuffed.
I hope you all like it!

Ah, lovely job! And by all means, don't edit a thing, it is absolutely perfect as is. Sometimes simple is best. I seriously love the way the edges are blurred.

This is an interesting angle indeed! Love the stock choice, and great work. With the angle, it doesn't look like it would be easy to manipulate!
