"Arabian Nights"

My brother was watching Aladdin, and I decided to try and recreate the city of Baghdad (minus the huge palaces with the domed tops). This is an aerial view of the jagged buildings; I like the lighting and the clouds I made...this is the closest Icame to making a cool reproduction of it...what do you think? :roll

Looks like great use of the wind filter.

Basically, what Phil said. To elaborate on, however, what I did was make clouds, give it the crystallize filter, Hue+Saturate it to a nice dark blue, rotated canvas, gave it a wind filter to give it length, added some lens flares for the lights thru the windows, had two more layer masks of clouds for the "clouds," added "arabian nights," and......wallah!

Thanks for the comments.

great piece. i can sense some emotion in it. tranquil, a sleeping city. nice work. maybe fade the clouds up top a bit, though.
