[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The “Mandaragat” statue is situated facing the Manila Bay in Malate, Manila…
It’s a tribute for Filipino sea farers….

This composition is inspired by the recently posted “ Leonardo da Vinci”..

I just can’t help, but to come up with my own rendition… The presentation fits my photo of “Mandaragat”….

Hope you like it….This is my first hpp post…

The process is quite difficult to elaborate, but I’ll give you a hint what tools I use in this process..

First I duplicated the layer and cropped the statue using pen tool. I used filter/clouds for the storm clouds effects…. I used much of filters and layer modes…. I screened the image filled with dark blue (reduce opacity) to blend in the colors… I used clouds effects and brush for the lightning effects…

I usually don't comment photographs of statues, paintings and third mans artwork.
This will be exception.
Your PP turn this statue in quite a different thing from originall. Your PP is very good, very skillful and imaginative.
