About the Image(s)
This was a quick one, I just did it today. I did some shots of the mannequin last year in the light box, and although I didn't start with this one originally, it's the one I ended up using. The background is Marble Canyon in Death Valley. I added a night sky to create more of an other worldly mood, then flipped, cut and pasted the mannequin into the scene. I used the Hue adjustment to color the mannequin and added an outer glow. Of course, it needed something else so I found a shot of the desert iguana and placed him on the rock, added a bit of shadow and darkened the ground. Then I had to think of a title, lol. I thought an other worldly creature might be surprised to see another creature on the path, so hence the title.

Very well done composite. The only suggestion is that the lighting on the Iguana could be improved. It looks like the lighting is coming from the mannequin, otherwise it is night and very little light would be on Iguana. So the Iguana should be dark on the left side with a shadow on the left as well.   Posted: 10/04/2021 16:13:49
