Model extracted from grey background, the new background built from many various layers: mountains, houses, castles and close-up of a stone, sky built from many different clouds layers, adjustment layers (curves, levels, saturation) applied to blend everything and to create colours on the sky

Shot the model in my studio on a white background, sitting on a plain white pedestal. Added tonal contrast from NIK Effects in Photoshop CS5 to get a more painted pin-up look. Extracted her to the HDR beach background, added shadows, added a few seagulls and some grass brushes. Finally added the white vignette, also from NIK Effects, for the finishing touch. Model is Timillia MM#1740423. Other credits available on the photo in my port.
Caitlin was shot in her hallway in front of a green screen. It took 15 or 20 shots to get the perfect 'her' and 'card drop.' The background is a stock piece with many things added and taken away. Even the grin on the cat was added later.
