A night on Pirate Bay

This was one of one of my designs that came from a Photoshop Creative challenge. I used two of the required pictures.

The blackbird is pretty obvious, but the wall with a frame for a bulletin board (or whatever it is) became the challenge. I created a scene using those two pictures as well as a photos of Legg Lake in Southern California, the Redondo Pier, a human skull and a lantern. The scene took about 8 hours to create.
After I created this, I decided to run with the pirate theme, and create a side view of the island. Click here to see the two pictures.
