The Alien In His Natural Environment

PDE

So great macro and so well lit.

The details here are remarkable and so the colors with very creative light effect which makes this image very interesting to view.

Thank you for sharing it and wishing you all of the best.

An exceptionally brilliant bit of creativity!  The Master still has "IT"!!

But... I have a question... is the alien the one in the image, or the creator of the image??? HA!

BOTH???

if the alien's natural environment is so pleasing, what started the process of alienation?  Thought provoking indeed!

Dave I clicked on yes when I saw your question, ha! I really thought for a moment that it was for that, ha!

Ranga, it's a good question too, IE would be a good question if this picture has to do something with alienation as a psycho-sociological phenomena! This one is simply an ET in his natural environment which is the cosmos!

So creative ! Love the background orbs , light and color. Title says it all. Well done...

Wonderful Pierre !

They are coming to get us. Nice and interesting creation. I like the bubble effects and lighting in the background. The "being" is both cute and disturbing. I think doing something to his eyes that makes them feel more alive or real instead of just two dark holes would help. Your usual artist creation. Well done. - Charles

I know this small creature. Now it have find new background. Excellent bubbles, nice work, but lost wooden body and camera :-(

Very impressive work, Pierre!

Outstanding execution for beautiful dream, PDE!       Best regards 777!

Exquisite !

Michaela, I was so worried about you! Thanks God you're well!

Gorgeous image Pierre! But I am confused! How did you do this? What am I looking at? Or am I asking for secrets? ;-)

The colors are fantastic! I echo the question, how did you image/what is the "bug"?

Beautifully done Pierre

All my best,  Bill

Amy and Jim, how did I do what? The background was a pinched a lot one and I added  lens flare all around and then put my PSD file of the alien and he is an adjusted for that purpose grasshopper or cricket, I don't know what it was!

It was only a lot of efforts to select him from the background using polygonal lasso tool! Easier part of the job was cutting his wings and making a buttock out of what left! As you see no big secret!

Great creativity!

Very imaginative and  good use of effects in background work. highly original and artistic artwork! A true artist. Thanks for your comments on my pics Pierre. Best wishes . . . . . John

Pierre - thank you for the explanation. It does sound like a lot of work, but the results paid off. You must be pretty good with that lasso tool (and be patient!) to be able to select around each little hair on each leg! Great image.

Pierre, there are numerous persons who use photoshop, but you are unique in creativity.

The Photoshop work is one thing, but the creativity is what makes this photo, as well as your others. I use the "Quick Selection Tool" quite often to isolate parts of a photo - very quick for the first time around, then I use the lasso tools if needed for fine tuning.

Nice creative artwork! I like the composition of main subject, selection of color mood and simple elements. The alien just staring at me, but not angry-looking and seems be friend! Bravo Pierre!

Venu, vu, vaincu ;)

Je plaisante, Pierre...

Refreshing image.

Congrats dear friend !
