A Thousand Times - Image

This is an image i came up with for a poem of mine A Thousand Times.
The beautiful woman comes from *KasStock, [link]
The window comes from *screamin-jazzy, [link]
The sunrise comes from ~SunrunnerStock, [link]

I'm quite a novice at photomanipulation of this kind. This took me about 4 hours to accomplish. The woman and sheet are in three layers, the golden color (colorized and raised contrast with burning), the rest of the woman (in blue colorize and dimmed with trimming) and the shee (inverted, colorized and trimmed). The window was used as an outline and basicaally provided the cutout for the sunrise. The sunrise itself was colorized, adjusted levels, zoom blur and a second layer added underneath with a lighten blending option. The sunset was put through glass distortion filter and blurred with the window to make it appear further away. Some small burrings, painting and other touches were done. I'm still very VERY new at photomanipulation of this type. All done in Photoshop.
