 Ok, I really went to town on this image. And got a little obsessed. Base image of hot tub bathers from a Sept. trip up the coast (this hot tub is from Post Ranch Inn and is in a TV ad currently running!). Overlays of birds from a whale watching trip in San Diego. Clouds/Fog from a sky shot in Vegas. "Moon" is actually harvested from this image.

Added some "galaxy" filter from Flaming Pear.

And then I discovered brushes... Added bubbles, stars, snowflakes. I wanted to add a glowing swirl somewhere but I don't think it would improved the shot.

I was going for a "transported to a magical, mythical place" feeling. I hope I got it, and that it's not too "dark"...
