Adobe Take 10 Challenge Student Work

Thank you @Erikas for the invitation to Dribbble.
My first post is a student entry for the Adobe Take Ten Challenge : Impulsive which took place last spring. It is a composite shot of 10 stock images put together utilizing various blend modes, paint brushes, and masking techniques learned in my GIT 334 - Image Editing and Manipulation course at Arizona State University. Since it was last minute entry, I was pleased to be able to create this shot in Adobe Photoshop within a 4 hour time period. I ultimately wanted this final image to capture vibrancy of the imagination, the essence of beauty in nature, and cultural diversity.
