The night was thick with fog as she let the fine powder slip from her fingers to join the bubbling brew in the cauldron below. Only the moonlight showed the witch that her precious ingrediants were mixing well.

That's my silhouette, and I have my permission to use it. :D Done in PSP5. Background (a.k.a. water and moon and land) from scratch, the rest from silhouettes.

Oh, and just a note, I meant for the dust to be invisible in the reflexion. My mom said it looked weird, but I dunno, I kinda like it.

Hehe, those pictures we took are coming in handy all ready. I like the couldron but I don’t like the hat - I think it looked better before you added the hat. Anyway... you should add fog to this 2

:-) Melissa "Bee" Stephan replies: "I agree, I’m in the process of removing the hat. I hate it, it looks like a santa hat. The minute my ticket is cleared, I’ll let you see the fixed version. I tried to add fog with the blur effect, but I didn’t want to go too bold becuase with my screen, I can’t always tell what color things are.
Anyhoo, dear sibling, Thank you for another comment!"

Taht’s better, although it’s still a little weird at the top 2

:-) Melissa "Bee" Stephan replies: "Meh, meh, meh, meh, meh. Blehblehbleh. "

It’s dust? I thought it was lightning or something like that. Dust would form a cloud. The foggy/misty effect is good though the water seems suspiciously calm.....

:-) Melissa "Bee" Stephan replies: "Oh, so suspicious. I kind of dislike the dust-stuff part, but I can’t undo it now, I lost the original when my computer got a virus. My computer guy made a copy of my files, but that only had this one in it. "

It’s a good image, nice use of reflection. Might you consider breaking up the dust a little bit to make it more powder like. It would really make the image pop.

12 Melissa "Bee" Stephan replies: "Yeah, I kind of wish the dust had turned out better, but I lost the original, so this is what I’m stuck with."
