Great starter image Jim. I added an image from Pixabay to create a composite. I duplicated the Pixabay image and blended together with the Linear Blend mode. Using a mask I blended the result together with the starter image. Then I created a stamped layer and took that into Topaz Studio 2. I applied the Molten Gold look from the Dramatic section. Back PSE I blended the whole together using the colour blend mode. Added some text and was done. On Top of the World... ![](https://i.ibb.co/QMvwSGZ/On-Edge-2b.jpg)

I replaced the background with one of my own images. I live near a small airport and paragliders often fly over the nearby fields. One guy in particular likes to fly close to the ground and this is one of my captures. Here i replaced the background, did some cloning, and added a few NIK filters. ![](https://i.ibb.co/LrRRnB5/challenge2.jpg)

Beautiful starter image, Jim. When I saw it the word that came to mind was ethereal. So I added that word to a StockSolo search and came up with an arora and the girl. I then blended them together and added the text. ![](https://i.ibb.co/nwd7h5v/EP-1.jpg)

An abstraction made B&W, then colorized. ![](https://i.ibb.co/c8gVNRg/Untitled-2.jpg)
