40 second video showing the build up of all the layers that created this image.
The second in my flower faerie series, and my first attempt to do a pre-planned composite concept involving other people.
I photographed the background first with my faerie series in mind, then created the pose from what I imagined could be happening to make that tulip bow down.
The edit itself proved much more difficult than I had anticipated and I had to revisit it again at a much later date when I had more experience with creating these kinds of edits.
There is a second image in this set still to be completed. It is waiting only for me to find and photograph a suitable background image for it (no mean feat when I want pretty flowers in a land that is all snow for 6-8 months of the year).
