This is the final project i tweeked the color saturators and hues a little more and added in some bones in the roots with a low opacity to add some more interesting imagery and to further push the idea that life can flourish from death.
This is more towards the final piece. I changed the saturation on the background, i fixed the ground so theres no hard line but also no blur and I've began adding bugs to the roots of the tree.
I started by cutting out the tree and then flipping a different image i took of the same tree to create the illusion of roots. I then took an image of dirt I found online as well as long exposure images of the night sky and put them together to create this image.
